I feel the same way about the military award plates on my vehicles. The State of Texas graciously waves annual registration fees for some awards. It saves me big bucks annually, but I always feel a bit embarrassed especially when someone asks me, "what's that medal?" (even though it names it on the plate). I usually just smile and say, "nothing special."
