Veteran's Day is this Friday. If you have served or are currently serving you deserve a nice lunch on the house. 

Veteran's Day started after World War I to honor US veterans and victims of all wars. Honestly, we should be honoring people who have served more than just one day a year. If you see someone in a military uniform, be sure you show them some love, and not just on November 11.

Several restaurants across the country are offering free meals to veterans on Friday. Many are also giving free meals to current members of the military as well. If I left anyone off, please let me know in the comments and I will add it later.
