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.
Bingo. Employers are required by law to obtain veteran status. EEO reporting comes to mind.
Oh, I assumed they were a discrimination thing. Gathering random information due to government requirements is very different.
Not necessarily requirements, but sometimes government contracts favor contractors that employ veterans, so it’s more like the company is hoping to be able to use you on paper.
