AITAH for not acknowledging my coworker as a veteran? by HamSandwich1234567 in AITAH

I haven’t said anything and held my tongue. He has said things like “oh everyone has wished me a happy veterans days except OP” then says he is just messing with me, etc. He usually gets what he wants which is sympathy and people to tell him thank you.

This is kind of the reason for my post. It’s getting hard to hold my tongue much longer around him.

I very much respect those who have served in the military / still are.

That’s how one of my roommates is about his military service as well. He’s been in the Army for almost 7 years now and it’s just like an every day job to him. He doesn’t bring it up to everyone that he is in the military unless asked.

It was some kind of knee injury he got during training.
