I'm proud that I served, but I'd say that I'm pretty low-key about it.
When it comes to license plates, etc., personally, I'm not into it that much. I'm not one to try and stand out from the crowd. For example, other than my Netz badge, my car doesn't really stand out from the crowd. A veterans' plate, for me is a little too much like saying, "hey look at me!" But, I do appreciate them when I see them on others' cars, particularly when the plates are well designed.
My rant was just based on a conversation that had with my friend that was in the National Guard and deployed to Iraq and has an OIF tag on his car. When I looked at the DMV website, I was disappointed that we have nice tags for the other 3 branches, but that stupid "Army Strong" logo for the Army Vet plates.
Personally, I just think that it's a little tacky, and I would maybe consider getting one if it had the regular round "Department of the Army" seal on it...
