With the people who say, "Well, my father/mother/son/daughter/husband/wife/etc. is/was in this branch of the military, and they say <insert what is more likely the opinion of the author than the military person they know).

I reply back with, "My dad joined the Navy in 1945, got discharged when the war ended, and then got drafted into the army during Korea because he didn't serve a full term in 45. He was in TWO branches of the military so that must mean MY opinions are worth twice as much as yours..."
