Short answer: No. Google Drive and Google One cloud storage do not have a standing military or veteran discount, and Google’s only military offer (on the Google Store) explicitly excludes subscriptions like Google One.
Who qualifies
For Google Drive or Google One storage: no one gets a military rate, because the discount does not exist. Google does run a verified military discount on the separate Google Store (hardware), open to active duty, veterans, reservists, National Guard, and military family members through ID.me. That program is for devices, not your storage plan.
What you get
On Google Drive and Google One, service members pay the same published price as everyone else. The catch with the Google Store military discount is that its terms specifically exclude subscriptions, including Google One, along with items like Nest Aware, Preferred Care, and financing. So even after you verify as military, that discount cannot be applied to your cloud storage. It only covers eligible hardware, and even some devices (such as Nest Mini and Chromecast) are excluded, so check the current terms before you buy.
How to claim it
There is nothing to claim for storage. To actually save: use the free 15 GB Google account storage before paying; choose annual Google One billing, which costs less per month than paying monthly; or split costs by sharing a Google One plan with your family members. If you want Google’s verified military hardware discount, register at ID.me and shop on store.google.com or at a physical Google Store, just know it will not touch your Drive subscription.
