Veterans Day Freebies 2015 – We Salute Our Veterans
In honor of Veterans Day, many restaurants will have FREE Meals for Veterans. It is just a small way that communities can give back and say thank you to the Veterans of our country! We are sharing this list of places where Active Duty Service Members, Guard Members and Veterans can get a FREE Meal on Veteran’s Day. Make sure you pass on this information to anyone you know who is a Veteran or Active Duty so they can snag a free meal too! All places require proof of military service to get your Veterans Day Freebies. Proof of service includes Military ID, Discharge Papers, DD214 and being in uniform. What proof of service required depends on the restaurant so be sure that you check with the place that you plan on going to find out what they require! Plus don’t forget that there are FREE Haircuts for Veterans!
