How can I verify that a person wearing a uniform is actually a current or former U.S. Military member?
A. One of the first step is to ask the person to produce their military ID. Military members will always carry their Military ID. Due to such groups as the USAVR, AVR, and other wannabe groups that let any person put on a U.S. Military uniform as well as provide its members with look alike military IDs, we advise you to examine the ID. IDs should display the branch of service and the status (Active Duty, Reserve, Retired or Dependent).
