I can't remember which seed company it was, but they were offering "up to 50% discount on all orders for veterans". When I looked into it they asked for name, branch and dates of service, and social security number and I backed right the fuck out. There is no need for a social security number to verify if someone is a veteran and there are services that do it with nothing more than name and dates of service.btw......ever read Mesh's Privacy Policy? Be thankful, they don't take Canadians I would not use them for anything, and definitely not be giving them my SS number or any portion of it.
