"( ) all sales made to military veterans during the twenty-four hour period on November 11, Veterans Day, each year. For purposes of this item, a 'military veteran' is any person who is retired or discharged from the armed services of the United States who possesses a United States Department of Defense discharge certificate, also known as a DD Form 214, that shows a characterization of service, or discharge status of 'honorable' or 'general under honorable conditions' and establishes the person's qualifying military service in the United States armed forces.
