To dream about a veteran suggests that you have some experience in a particular field.
Perhaps the dream is telling you to use this knowledge and share it with others. It may have served you well and now it’s your turn to pass it on to someone else.
It’s possible that due your experience in this arena, you are reluctant to try a new approach. It might be wise to open yourself up to new ways of doing things and new ideas to accommodate the changes that have taken place.
If you are no longer in the field you once were, you may feel underqualified to be passing on your guidance, in which case do you need to admit that you are out of practice and that someone else would be better placed than you to advise others?

If this sounds familiar, you may be taking this hard. The dream could be encouraging you to find a new passion to become an expert in. If you’ve recently left something behind, maybe there is room in your life to learn a new craft.
Similarly, if the person in your dream was a vetaran and has recently closed a big chapter in their life, perhaps you need to make sure you support them during this time of transition.
On the other hand if you saw someone you knew as a veteran in your dream, it’s possible they are your key source of information.
Perhaps you need to ask them some questions, shadow them for a while or find out if their expertise can put you in touch with someone who can help and aid you in your own goals.

If you had tight hold of the jewels, you may feel this chrished thing will never escape your grasp because it is part of your very being. Perhaps other people even rely on you for this because it is a steadfast part of your personality. On the other hand if the jewel slipped from your hand, there is danger in losing the very thing you deem as most important to you right now. Jewels are also indicative of power. Have you been entrusted with a new level of power in your professional life? The dream could be telling you to use it wisely and responsibly if you are tempted to take advantage of this new position.
