When you take one last drag of your cigarette before entering an establishment, preferably a Walmart super center, and exhaling the smoke as you walk through the sliding doors. In order to be a pure veteran, you must blow the smoke on an unsuspecting customer, usually a woman with her kids, or possibly the greeter.
I hate going to walmart, every time I leave someone gives me the veteran and I go home smelling like cigarettes.
