Hands In Pockets
Another way you can spot a veteran or a soldier is by checking whether their hands are in their pockets. It is rare to find soldiers whose hands are in their pockets because it is their way of being always ready for anything that may occur. You usually find them with hands on their hips instead and in a power stance.

Quiet During Announcements
Soldiers show respect at all times, so it makes sense they keep quiet when they receive orders. Whether it is at a baseball game or the supermarket, when an announcement goes off, you can expect them to stand quietly, at attention and listening.
