Identification Cards for Driver's Licenses

Why is it there are more difficulties for military Armed Forces of the United States of America in the civilian sector, than there are situations in the military itself?

While there is not the denial of the situations within the military which have needed a bit of calibrating here and there, in reference to the civilian sector which constantly has seemingly required more and more fine tuning while demanding military guys acclimate to the civilian sector while demanding even more from military guys; where is the same response in reference to the civilians to acclimate to the individuals when they get out of the military, and make life easier for them after all of that which has been bestowed upon the civilian sector because of those who did the work and the effort to ensure the civilians could have what they have enjoyed?

After so many years since 2008 with a specific example to my return back to the state of Texas in 2019, why has it taken so long for any state though specifically the state of Texas with as many military and veterans in the state of Texas to use a military identification card to get a drivers license? I admit when I had initially gotten my drivers license for the state of Texas there had not been what I went through to get my drivers license in the state of Texas, though I also minimally remember that time admittedly as it was less than 6 months from waking up from the coma from my Psalm Sunday 2000 head injury. However across the United States of America if it is not known military guys for the Armed Forces of the United States of America go through more of a background check for time in the military than any drivers license and in my opinion, it is ridiculous for anyone who has a military background to have to go to the levels I have seen and experienced specifically in the state of Texas though I am uncertain if that is the only state with such requirements. Of which if the state of Texas is the only state with that level of requirements, then there is the portion in reference I wonder to the treatment of the military throughout the state which is of concern.


 

Maybe when I went to buy a carton of cigarettes in Carrollton Texas if it was more well known I would not have had to get the manager to lecture or what the cashier called disciplined the female cashier for being ignorant and arrogant enough to tell me she thought a 'military ID meant nothing compared to a state id' when that occurred in 2008, which I have a feeling I am not the only one who was annoyed and disgusted by such types of individuals. Admittedly I did not graduate Basic Training though there are those who have done so as well as have had more paperwork in different aspects of their jobs, which in turn confuses and confused me about such a situation. The manager had lectured the female cashier thankfully in my opinion to inform her of the requirements for a military identification card and apologized to me and ensured he would make sure that did not occur again, as much as he could. I appreciated that as I still do, though I know from other experiences that was not the only location for such as well as not the only time. I guesstimate I am not the only one who has dealt with that in the DFW area of Texas, or other areas of Texas not near a military base within a major city complex area.


 

In my opinion if someone has a military ID which includes veteran ID, there should be an ease for them to get a drivers license in any state throughout the United States of America in comparison and the lesser amount of paperwork required since the federal government has already cleared each individual.


 

For example if there is a veteran status on a drivers license automatically when moving from one state to another, that should be enough for the clarification for any state issued id. If in conjunction with a military and/or veteran ID, that should be considered all of the documents combined in one that any state should need for a drivers license to move from one state to another within the United States of America.


 

My opinion, take that for what it is worth.
