The term specifically means someone who has spent a number of years in their occupation and has endured all the hardships associated with it, and had a wealth of knowledge to share from their experiences. A similar word would be 'experienced.'
The term "Veteran" is most often used to indicate a person who served in the military. Veterans Day in the US is a holiday to commemorate those that served in the armed forces.
