If you are a veteran, thank you so much for your service and dedication to your fellow humans. There are seemingly very few ways that people can not only say thank you but also follow it up with something else.

New York State has made sure that Disabled Veterans who are residents of the Empire State can also get this other perk for free, as a thank you for your service.
