Restaurants and retailers are expressing their gratitude to United States military by offering deals and discounts on Veterans Day.
Showing a military ID card or another proof of service, including a photograph in uniform, may be used as a form of identification. Discharge papers, Veterans Affairs (VA) cards and veteran organization membership cards might also be used to prove service.
Not every location will be participating in every promotion, so be sure to check with your local restaurant or store. Here are some of the best deals, discounts and freebies for Veterans Day.
