restaurant to serve veterans free meal

[shellbellc]

VETERANS DAY UPDATE: In their annual salute to all veterans McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurants will again provide free meals in honor of Veterans Day. All veterans can receive a free lunch or dinner entrée at McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurants nationwide on Sunday, 5 NOV 06. Vets should show proper identification (VA card, VFW card, veterans ID, discharge papers, etc.)


Reservations Are Strongly Encouraged! In a show of thanks to our nation's veterans, Bill McCormick and Doug Schmick offer to serve those who've served at their McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurants. Last year the company served nearly 15,000 vets nationwide. This year's event is taking place on the Sunday before Veterans Day so that families can participate. McCormick & Schmick's annual veterans program began as a small effort in just one restaurant in 1999. Due to its overwhelming popularity and positive response received from veterans the program has expanded nationwide. A complete list of participating restaurants may be found at www.McCormickandSchmicks.com .

Also thanking active duty and veterans, the Golden Corral restaurants will be having their annual salute to the military on Monday November 13, from 5-9 p.m. Military Appreciation Monday (First Monday after Veteran's Day) is set aside for Golden Corral to honor all active duty and retired military personnel with a free "thank you" dinner and beverage at any Golden Corral restaurant. No identification is required. <FONT color=#000000><SPAN style="COLOR: black">

I think it's great they do that, I hear the Golden Coral about 60 miles from me can hardly handle the crowd and I don't do crowds thanks to my PTSD so I pass on it but I do thank them and all their employees for doing it for the Vets
Thanks for letting the Vets here know about it

Reservists are rarely included in any benefit although they hae been getting better about it with all the press about Reserves and Naional guardman being sent to Iraq. People forget Reserves and Guardsman are the expendable soldiers. It stinks.
