A soldier only fights in one war, and you call
him a veteran. Perhaps "veteran" isn't the
best word to use, since it's borrowed from a
completely different paradigm. (AH! I CAN'T
BELIEVE I USED THAT WORD!) What about
"alumnus?" I can't think of any other applicable
terms.

I figure it's okay to term them "veteran" Trek
actors, because they both had lead roles in
their respective films; both were main
characters. It's not like they were redshirts.
