I've never asked this question, and I've never seen anyone else ask it, but I'm curious. What do you say when someone thanks you for your service?
My Military ID is right next to my driver's license and debit card in my wallet, so it's visible if I have to show my driver's license for something or if I'm taking my debit card out to use. Very often, someone who sees it will ask what branch I was in. Then they will thank me for my service. My usual answer is "Thank you for your support." But I'm curious about how others respond to that.

I always sound off: THANK YOU, you were worth it.
Say what is in your Heart at the time how ever never make the speaker feel that there THANK YOU WAS NOT TAKEN WELL. Be respectful for some out there it is really hard for them to muster a Thank you.

My pleasure! May not be the best, but it is very natural for me. Then I hit them with my cane. Disabled Marine
