Free food and car washes for Veterans

Businesses honored the people who have served and are actively serving our country today.

In the past, Cruisers Car Wash & Detail Center has given military men and women discounts. But this Veterans Day, they got a free full-service car wash.

From sirloins to salads, Applebee’s Restaurant is giving veterans and those on active duty a free entrée until midnight.

“It’s nice to be appreciated, at least that one day a year,” says Alex Ritschel who served in the Air Force. “Sometimes, it seems like a lot of people forget, and it’s just nice to be remembered.”

This coming Monday is “all-you-can-eat” buffet for veterans at Golden Corral. The restaurant is having a “thank you” dinner for vets, retired and serving, from 5:00 – 9:00 pm.
