It's only for 'participating restraunts'. Ones in high military areas like
Norfolk, 'aint participating'. A lot will go though thinking, 'free main'
then find out the site isnt part of it, then go , well, we are already here,
might as well eat.....

There are lots of 'offers' like that which actually scam military in the
end.

Please don't forget the McCormick and Schmicks chain of
restaurants which for many years have offered free entrees
to Veterans on Veterans Day. Not nearly as big as Applebys
but as large a concern and heart:

For those who are nervous (and I would be, since cshenk is a reliable
source), there is a locator button on that page. At least for the US,
put in your zip code, and you can get a phone number and hours, so you
can call and verify. There's a button for international, and you can
find the Canadian locations.

You think the details matter to the corporate? Think again. Come
February, it will be a free appetizer for "lovers". After all, they
deserve a free pass some how.

Don't fool yourself. We don't matter to companies that are large enough
to have fangs into international concerns.

We the little people are the golden road upon which they, "the
entitled", build their fortunes upon.

Fought in a war? Had a baby? Are you Irish? Been in love in February? Etc.

Good intentions? Guess what your road is paved with, and whom it benefits.

Got a Birthday soon? Free dessert for you, and every one at your table!!

Still... haven't veterans given enough for their country? Why should
they have to eat the crap at Applebee's?
Given a choice of free "food" at Applebee;'s or paying for a decent
meal... I'll pay for a decent meal.

You reminded me of a situation that proved to me the quality of the
people overseas that support the US intentions.

I was supporting a multi-national field exercise for NATO that was while
the Berlin wall was still up.

I was visiting a unit via an M880 (pretty hefty 1/2 ton pickup), to
support their communications effort.

They had left for the field in too short of order, and left without
enough rations to have dinner once they deployed.

Once I realized they didn't have food, I went to the nearest town, and
tried to buy enough dinners for the 12 souls that would have gone hungry.

The German folks at the establishment I found, would not only not let me
pay for the beer I had, they would not let me pay for the dozen
Schnitzel dinners I was buying for the small unit I was buying the
dinners for. *THAT* is an example of a community supporting the military
that was protecting their freedom. They gave me a definite refresher on
why I was there in support of them. I was proud at that moment.

I don't think the corporate franchises have our same interests in mind.

There is one franchise that Does do it right for all active duty and
vets in November, although not always on the 11th. This year it's on
the 4th. Golden Corral, a buffet place... plain food done pretty
well.... buffet dinner for free.... 5 PM to 8 or 9 PM. Of course, many
will bring the significant other or the family... and busines is boosted
for that day. However, in this area it's a pretty popular family place,
anyhow, so lots of familiar customer faces will be seen all year.

It's on the radio here when they advertize it. The guys at work were
talking about it. Apparently last year the Applebee's by the exchange was a
'non-player'.

Don't get me wrong, it's a great offer, but it would make sense to call
ahead a few days before and find out for sure. A lot of places have
specials that day, some not advertized. I remember one year, when my local
McDonalds on Veterans day was giving the senior citizens discount to any who
showed an ID card (Active, retired, or dependant).

Disneyland/world and alot of the amusement park type places have specials.
Here in my area now with so much military, offers often stipulate 'in
uniform' (Oviously active duty only). Deals can be anything from free, to
significantly reduced. So, if i take the family out that day, I'll probably
call around for the best deal. I can probably find a free meal for me and
Don (both retired) and a reduced price for Charlotte (dependant ID of 2
retirees and a minor still).

Last year I had to work that day (CWO watch) but Don went to his local bar,
and his first beer was free and his meal 1/2 price.

Grin, actually a lot of them do it 'right' and us military (I'm now retired,
26 years Navy) appreciate it. I only mentioned a warning because not all
the offers are open everywhere.

I used to eat at a Golden Corral when I was a kid. It wasnt a buffet place
then though they had a pretty extensive salad bar with some soup choices.
Mostly I recall they did a decent simple steak for a quite reasonable price
that Mom could afford for all 4 of us.

Mom would take us out twice a year. My sister's birthday (in early
December) and the sorta conjoined one of me, my brother, and Mother's day
which always hits within 4-6 days of each other. We'd pick the center day
and do a sort of almost 'mini-Xmas' and call it Charlotte's day (for my
sister). We'd bring a gift for each person with us and unwrap them there
after ordering and while waiting for our meals. We'd get asked what was up
and explain it and they were always charmed and gave Mom the 'Mothersday'
meal deal (even if not there on that day) and all 3 of us kids the birthday
special (usually a free dessert). We'd sing happy birthday to each other
than a variation called 'Happy Mom's day' to Mom.

Really, such offers should include immediate family, since military
families certainly bear quite a burden, not just the service member
themselves.

That's a good point Pete. And a reason why I have a jaundiced eye when
hearing about the corporate "veteran" benefit for a free appetizer,
entree, or desert.

The example of the German caring I shared? They provided all three
components for free. I drew the line when they started to add bottles of
beer. After boxing the the dinners up, I tried to pay, and they would
not accept.

When the Freedom Bird brought me back to Travis AFB after my year in
'Nam they took us to a mess hall where we were served enormous cooked-
to-order porterhouse steaks, baked potatoes, fresh vegs, tossed salad,
and a choice of desserts. All of very high quality. I seriously
doubt that Applebee's has anything as good as that was.

> Some people like applebee's. Those who don't won't go.

I went to Applebee's a few times years ago because groups of friends
from work chose it. It was pretty mediocre, I thought, so haven't
ever gone on my own. -aem

Agreed. I've done plenty of work gathering luncheons at various spots of
their sort. Chili's is popular at my current work because it's the nearest
with something better than McDonalds. There's an Applebees almost as close
we use too. A few non-chain places a bit further afield. All suitable and
roughly equal for a simple soup/salad lunch perhaps with a small side
appetizer.
