Veterans Day 2018

November 10, 2018, 09:34(EST) By Eric (a.k.a. TweakHound)

Sunday, November 11th is Veterans Day. The “observed” day is Monday, November 12th.

To my Veteran brothers and sisters,
Thank you for your service. I’ll raise a glass to you Sunday!

To the families of my fellow Veterans,
We, the Veterans, know you’ve sacrificed too. On this day we salute you!

5 Facts to Know About Veterans Day
“Memorial Day is a time to remember those who gave their lives for our country, particularly in battle or from wounds they suffered in battle. Veterans Day honors all of those who have served the country in war or peace — dead or alive — although it’s largely intended to thank living veterans for their sacrifices.”

Department of Veterans Affairs Fast Facts
“There are 18.2 million veterans in the United States, according to the most recent statistics from the US Census.”

Here are some deals:
2018 Veterans Day Free Meals, Discounts, Sales and Deals
Restaurants offer deals for Veterans Day (National and local to me.)

Under Armour – 15% off for active military and veterans. (Must use ID.ME)

Some year round deals I use are:
ID.ME – They have links to active military and veteran discounts as well as first responders and others. They are verified by the Depart of Veterans Affairs.
Under Armour – 10% off ua.com orders for active duty service members, veterans, and first responders. (Must use ID.ME)

    Reference to Lowe’s veterans discount. I don’t have a Lowe’s card and I just show my Retired military ID or My veteran marked drivers license and get the 10%. You do have to ask for to get it, but that’s it.
