Of course, the numbers are miniscule, but there's certainly no reason to give members of the military and veterans any ADVANTAGE when it comes to PreCheck.
Why would a member or former member of the military be more likely to commit a terrorist act on US soil? Evidence please. And about 25% of TSA is composed of former military members. Does that mean that we are likely to have a TSA employee commit that terrorist act?
As a former military member I find your statement to be very distasteful!
