Discounts for Military & Veterans for National Military Appreciation Month 2024

Table of Contents

May is National Military Appreciation Month and includes Memorial Day weekend. We’ve compiled a list of organizations and companies honoring the military community during this month.

For civilians, Memorial Day is the beginning of Summer. However, that day means something else to the military community. Memorial Day isn’t a day to thank veterans but to remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

Oftentimes, businesses will do something on Memorial Day to honor the military and give something back. While we know and remember the ultimate sacrifice, we appreciate those who offer a discount or a free meal, showing that they remember and care about the military community.
