On leave after a yearlong tour of duty in Korea, my friend’s first craving back home in the states was a meal at McDonald’s.  Much to his surprise, the cashier took one look at his uniform and refused his money.  “Thanks,” he said.  “Sure,” she replied.  “We never charge bus drivers.”

When I was stationed at Bergstrom AFB in Austin, TX, one of the female medics in the base E.R. was married to a Texas State Trooper.  She met him at a restaraunt while he was on duty so they could have dinner together.  She told me the cashier told him they don't give free meals or discounts to security guards.  I remember she said he went all shades of red and was speechless.  The manager turned around saw him and another trooper eating with them standing there and apologized profusely.  Iirc, that restaraunt gave discounts to on duty law enforcement officers but that night those two troopers ate free.
