Most businesses do require some proof of service. I had my VA ID card, but if that wasn't good enough, with some effort I hunted down my DD-214. Also, I still have my "Shellback" card, but I didn't think that would fly as proof.

Too bad, as a "Wog" back in 1987, I had to pay to earn that one, too . Yep, it was a lot more fun "crossing" as a Shellback. I even kept my custom made "Shillelagh" made out of firehose instead of a knotty stick.

Nowadays, unless you have a Captain, who's very, very "old school", I hear the hazing is a piece of cake, which is probably all you have to crawl through, instead of the ungodly crap, we did before the new "PC" era.

Kudos to all the businesses that put out these great offers!

I still carry my shellback card from my navy days and a coin in my pocket from my army days! Sadly, neither work as proof of service.
