Yesterday, we asked our readers about any hot military veterans they knew or were aware of. You submitted the names—and photos!—of politicians, actors, friends, mothers, and fathers. This is an alphabetized list of hot veterans who are public figures; we’ll be running a separate post with reader submissions later today. Enjoy.

And, of course: Happy Veterans Day.
