Only point being, regardless of the subject matter, question was posed at 1% and solution provided at 10%.

It is correct that about 1% serve in the military - at any one time. The number of living veterans might bring that up to 10%, but that's only a guess.

I was a rare breed: a 1% of 1% of 1%. Huh? Well, 1% of the population was active duty. Of those, only 1% were pilots, and of all pilots, only 1% were FACs.

It seems like a lot more than 10% of us got drafted back in the day but I suppose it could be. GD

Nice - I'm a 1% er now.

IIRC when I went in, there were only like 1300 of us in my community total out of 330k in the Navy? Give or take.

Next clue


Digital Dan has ONE of these.


There was a time that DD was part of a group totaling about .005% of the population.........

A unique group of talented mis-fits..

A group which was directly responsible for near 1/6th of the total USofA economy.......

He may very well have 'saved your life' before.

Or at least 'told you where to go'........

Lowe's and Home Depot both have parking spots reserved solely for veterans. Not necessarily disabled vets, not those with any other quals, but vets in general. I highly doubt they would care if an active duty guy or some other disabled person parks there, but the sign says veteran parking only.

I absolutely wouldn't park in the veterans spots (like you know who), but, I whip right into the Pro spots! Haa haa haa haa haa! Asshats drive like they're the most important Sons-a-bitches on the road. Haa haaa haa haa.... I just think, I'll see you at Lowe's mutherphucwkers!

I don't park in the veteran spots and I am one.

I RARELY take a vets discount as well. Just not why I did it.

Like teal said. I know HD has them. I just used Lowe's for effect. I really hate both of them for some reason, although I tend to go to HD significantly more regularly. I especially can't stand when they're just fresh out of the pep talk, with their silly assed grins, "can I help you?" Yah right, I really doubt it!

I'll park in a Vet Only spot on occasion, and when I do, I always tell one of the staff that I appreciate that they do save us a small space.
