180 days of Active Service and an Honorable Discharge My father was in the navy and it didn't have anything to do with how long he served. He is considered a veteran and it often refers to retired armed services personnel. A veteran is one who has served in the armed forces and has an honorable discharge. A common misconception is that one had to have either been in combat and/or has retired from active duty to be called a veteran.
There is no set amount of time. When you join any of the Military branches as an Enlisted person, you can sign a contract of varying lengths up to 6 years. You can continue to re enlist as long as you meet certain requirements. Retirement is first offered after 20 years at 50% of your pay. Every year after 20, you can earn and additional 2.5%. So after 30 years you would retire at 75%.
You have to be at least 18 years of age to become a veteran.
As long as you served your nation in a military uniform ( a day or years) you are a veteran.
it is not how many wars put what you do in them but at lest 3
For more than 180 consecutive days

To simply have served in the country of South Vietnam while serving in the U.S. military services. Many joined the Army, so the initial service was three years. Others were drafted, and had to serve two years in the service. Draftees who came home after serving a year in Vietnam with only two or three months remaining on their 24 month service obligation were given 'early outs.' Others serving from '59 to '75 are considered Vietnam Era Veterans -- serving in the military during that time, but not actually assigned to units in Vietnam.
