Just wondering. I usually say "It was just my duty" or something like that.

I just got back from "Lunch with a Veteran" at my daughters' school. There was a WW2 veteran sitting next to me.

I think that is the first time I ever thanked a veteran. They are a class above all!!!

I felt like I shouldn't even be sitting next to him. I feel like that is a veteran, not me (and I am a war veteran)

They should say "you're welcome", it's what people with manners do when someone says thank you.

Are you a Vet? This just sounds strange because most Vets seem humble, not wanting the attention.
