    The truth. Depending on the context they will either report how many military veterans they employ (so just tabulation that goes to a checkbox if they bid for a government contract), or it involves military benefits in some manner, which will quickly come back to haunt you if you ‘lied’ on application docs.

      Oh, I assumed they were a discrimination thing. Gathering random information due to government requirements is very different.

      Bingo. Employers are required by law to obtain veteran status. EEO reporting comes to mind.
