Several people today said "Thank you for your service" when I was at our high school's Veteran's Day assembly(in a 40-year old Class A uniform).
No one said "Happy Veteran's Day", but it would not have surprised me if one of the kids had done so. I think sometimes people are at a loss for how to express their feelings in a few words of greeting. They were very sincere and respectful.
Veteran's organizations around here still sell poppies, but it's usually more around Memorial Day.
