It happened on Veterans Day

Checking out at the grocery, the nice cashier asked me if I were a veteran.  Forgetting it was November 11, I inquired "Why do you ask?"
"We're giving discounts to veterans on their Day", she answered.
 "I'm a veteran of the Peace Movement, working to end, endless war. Does that earn a discount?" 
"No, just military veterans."
"Oh well, maybe next year", I said, ending the conversation. 
 

I revere and respect vets so I choose to use their special day as well as the other 364, promoting peace. The war party uses Veterans Day, and the other 364 as well, to glorify everlasting war around the world.
