You probably remember the story of the Chili’s manager who took away the free Veterans’ Day meal from a guy he thought was pretending to be a veteran, Ernest Henry Walker<\/a>. We’ve withheld comment until we could verify Walker’s service – it turns out that he is a veteran with more than two years of service with the 25th Infantry Division in Hawaii, 1986 – 1988.<\/p>\n

I thought it was a dick move from the manager to take the meal away from him anyway – maybe he could have charged the man for the meal if he had real doubts about his service. From KTLA<\/a>;<\/p>\n

The Army veteran, who was with his service dog and wearing fatigues, wrote that the meal was taken away after another diner questioned the uniform Walker was wearing.<\/p>\n

The restaurant manager approached Walker and said a customer had said Walker was \u201cnot a real soldier because he had his hat on indoors.\u201d<\/p>\n

Walker showed the manager his military identification and discharge papers, but the meal was still taken away.<\/p>\n

Walker said he bought the fatigues he was wearing after he was discharged as a tribute to his service.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There were a couple of assholes in that restaurant that day and neither were Walker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
