APPLEBEE'S FREE MEAL INVITATION - NOV 11TH.

We know it's a little early but we want you to be the first to know that Applebee's will again say THANK YOU to our nation's veterans and active duty military by inviting them to their neighborhood Applebee's for a free meal on Veterans Day, Friday, Nov. 11, 2011.

On this national day of respect and remembrance, Applebee's is honored to salute veterans and active military for their service to our country.

As you may recall, Applebee's initiated this program nationwide for the first time two years ago. As a result, we have provided more than one million free meals annually.

Each year, Veterans Day turns into a military reunion at Applebee's in neighborhoods across the country. Veterans and active duty military from across generations enjoy great food as they share stories from their time serving our country.

This year, Applebee's is offering a Veterans Day menu that includes some of its signature and favorite items.

So that as many veterans and military personnel as possible are aware of this open invitation, we're asking that you please share the news with your members, subscribers, readers, family, friends and colleagues.

Here are the details:

All U.S. veterans and active duty personnel with proof of current or former military service will be treated to a free meal at all Applebee's in their respective neighborhoods on Veterans Day, Friday, Nov. 11, 2011.

Proof of service includes the following: U.S. Uniform Services Identification Card, U.S. Uniform Services Retired Identification Card, Current Leave and Earnings Statement, Veterans Organization Card, photograph in uniform or wearing uniform, DD214, Citation or Commendation.

I went to Applebee's last year, it was pretty good but if you go expect a wait. I didn't mind the because it gave me a chance to visit with my fellow vets. As to the id I wasn't asked but that may have been because I was wearing my Air Force veteran's hat.

Thanks for the heads-up, Stretch.

I enjoyed the free meal last year and showed some return appreciation by a couple more trips to that Applebee's as a paying customer.

And- of course, I tipped well.
