Why we offer this
The thanks tends to arrive on two days a year and then go quiet. What lasts longer is the house: a roof that needs work, an opener from the 1990s, a door that has not been balanced since it was installed. Veterans are the neighbours who already gave the country a decade of their lives, and plenty are now on a fixed income looking at a repair bill. This discount exists for the ordinary weekday when something breaks and nobody is making a speech about it.
