Veterans and military personnel should keep in mind that most businesses require proof of military service, which can include a Veterans Administration Universal Access Card, Military I.D., DD-214 (discharge papers), Veterans Service Organization Card (VSO's include groups like the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans, and the American Legion), or in some cases businesses will accept a picture of the veteran in uniform.

Veterans are encouraged to read the offers carefully as some discounts are offered in the days before Veterans Day such as McCormick and Schmick's, which offers a complimentary entrée from a special menu to veterans on Sunday, Nov. 8.

Additionally, not all franchise locations participate in their national chain's Veterans Day programs -- customers are encouraged to contact their nearest establishment to make sure they are willing to honor the discount at that location.
