You don't really choose to become a veteran, per se. The most common usage of the word is for former armed services personnel. A veteran is one who has served in the armed forces, especially one who has served in combat. It is especially applied to those who served for an entire career, usually of 20 years or more, but may be applied for someone who has only served one tour of duty. A common misconception is that one had to have either been in combat and/or has retired from active duty to be called a military veteran.
There are many benefits to being a veteran, ranging from access to veterans organizations, such as the VFW, to veterans discounts, to many VA benefits, such as reduced or free tuition at universities, home loans, etc.
