My experience in life is that the true heroes are people who never bring it up, and the people who bring it it up nonstop are more often than not working some kind of angle.
Joe could be a real nice guy and a good guy to deal with and the veteran thing could still be a complete crock. Guess no one will know any more than that.

All veterans are heroes for sacrificing part(s) of their lives for this country. Lots of veterans wear their veteran hats in public, all of the time, because they are proud of their service. Are they working some kind of angle? Maybe Joe is stating that he's a veteran because he's proud of his service. Maybe he knows that some people simply like to promote/donate to/help veteran-operated organizations. I don't think that's a bad thing, as long as there is proof of the donations being used properly.

I don't mind a veteran using their military service to promote something. I mind a company using "patriotism" to promote/sell something. There's a difference.

Throughout this thread, Joe has been vouched for by some great members. Along with that, he's extended the offer for people to reach out to him directly with any concerns, questions, etc.That is pretty respectable in my eyes.

Joe, thank you very much for your service. God Bless you, yours, and America.
