Well I do see people thanking military in different places. I haven't seen people doimg that with others. I dont think is a problem but a motivation to do it witl all mentioned :)
Well most of the time a soldier will have some sort of identification to show that they're either a vet or active duty (I.e. uniform, hat, etc) while ems, fire fighters, and police officers don't have that in the civilian world unless they're on duty.
Lemme tell you something... you want to thank us? Vote in politicians who will pass legislation that takes care of us better, rather than play political games with our budgets.
Not to belittle the work our Public Safety folks do for our communities, but military service and public service are two totally different items that both require completely different sacrifices. The biggest of all is that a cop or firefighter can quit at any time and is not required to take a bullet for any of us. Your uniform members of all branches do not have these luxuries. Military folks also give up many of their constitutional rights in order to serve. Our Public Safety folks certainly put more on the line than a standard civilian, but military members put it all on the line for us. That is why we recognize the sacrifices made by our brave men and women in uniform over that of our Public Safety persons.

I have heard lots of people thank cops and firemen for their service. They put their lives on the line just like vets do.
