Niggardly is a widely understood word with a long history though. I've never heard of any term like "vietnam times veteran" that did not refer to someone who fought in vietnam.
That one no, and all the ones like it are referring to actual veterans. When someone starts using terms with no real meaning that sound like ones that do, then they either got their words mixed up and meant the widely used term, or they're pulling a fast one and want an out if they get caught.

you haven't heard that term at all in any context until now.
