Just curious about the veteran community out here. Have you ever served in the US military? If so which branch?

One is the obvious "no", but others would be Conscientious Objector (for those around during Vietnam) and those who were deemed physically unfit.

(29,493 posts)3. Okay, but the poll asked, "have you ever served in the military?"
Sorry, it seems by that question that it's open to all. I thought it was trying to gauge the percentage of people who HAVE served in the military.

If you didn't serve, there's nothing in the poll to click. I don't see any logical conflict there.

(29,493 posts)5. I am not trying to pick a fight. I thought it was trying to capture everything.
No worries. I think we're nitpicking grammar here.
