Nice little editorial from CA
Yes.
...it exempts from its restrictions those ages 18-20 who are “active-duty military personnel ... confirmed by a military identification card.” But a military veteran, honorably discharged at age 20, all of a sudden could no longer buy smokes.

Could make readjusting to civilian life even more challenging for some. And it's an incentive for staying in the military, when one's circumstances might make moving on with life/career/family the more responsible path. Next they'll exempt fast food workers to cut down on turnover.
