I am a US veteran

Nothing makes me cringe harder than someone thanking me for my service

Even though I personally didn't do anything horrible, it's still making me remember one of the worst experiences of my life

It only seems to be a US only thing. I assume it's because the military is such a big thing for the US where other countries just see having a military almost as a chore.
