homeless vets
Displaced military personnel
Homeless vets are military veterans living without stable housing—on streets, in shelters, or in temporary arrangements.
The phrase appears frequently in discussions of social services and charitable giving, often invoking the idea that those who served their country deserve better: We should take care of homeless vets before anyone else.
The term sometimes appears in political arguments about spending priorities.
