    We’re traveling to Lee County in Nov. for the holiday.
    This will be an ideal day-trip-just 2 hrs north of there. Thanks so much!
    We’re retired Army 🙂

    This program is awesome. We went July 4th to San Antonio and it was free for four of us along with a dining discount and a shopping discount.

      Do you receive a 20% for the dining and shopping?

    Wish this applied to my kids. My son is in ROTC at ASU and my daughter just enlisted but won’t ship out until January.

    My husband and I were able to go to Busch Gardens using his free admission and 50% off mine. It was such a wonderful place. Absolutely loved it. Will be taking our kids when they are old enough

    You have to be active?! What about those who are retired?! A little unfair

  6. Marion Hopkins

    We are retired since January .all the websites say for retired military too.but if u want to get a ticket u get turned down and told active only.and when u click on the sides u constantly get the waves of honor which is for active military only I don’t understand why do retired military is not elegible for any of these military services

  7. Jeff Walker

    They turn down veterans. Veterans are not recognized at all.

    • Jane Harden
