Sure, there are plenty of posers out there, but it's not my job as a civilian to weed them out. I believe questioning someone's service, as someone who never served, is disrespectful.

How would campus a security guard/police officer(?) know that Smith was a Vet, or what his service record was when he approached him at that table?
The only thing that matters in this case is the ADA, not his military service, or his age (senior citizen).
