On Veterans Day, a number of U.S. businesses are honoring retired and active military members – and in some cases military families as well – with a host of free items and discounts.
Though Veterans Day is officially on Sunday, it will be observed as a federal holiday on Monday, and therefore which day the deals are offered varies from place to place.
In most cases, individuals will be required to present their military ID.
