Long and short, if you are in uniform anywhere around me, you'll never pay for your meal, your coffee etc. You won't know who did pay for it because I don't want you go know. I address it discreetly with the server and instruct them to to NOT tell you who is picking up the tab. The only thing a serviceman needs to know is that somewhere in this crowd of people there are people who recognize and appreciate the sacrifices you have made.

Never have I parted with money so happily than picking up the tab for those who serve.
