WASHINGTON -- It may be a small gesture, but every year companies across America offer a host of freebies to veterans and active-duty military personnel on Veterans Day as a way to thank them for their service.
Many local chains and franchises offer their own deals, but here's a quick look at some of the nationwide freebies that will be available this week. All of the deals require vets to show their military IDs or some proof of service, and may vary depending on the location.
If you've got more to add, drop me an email or list them in the comments section below:
* Applebee’s Restaurants: One free entree from their “Vets Day Menu” to all veterans and active-duty military personnel on Nov. 11.
* Golden Corral: Free buffet meals, including beverage and dessert, to veterans and active-duty military on Nov. 15.
* Hooters: One free meal to veterans and active-duty personnel on Nov. 11.
* Hy-Vee: Free buffet breakfasts (at any location with in-store dining) to veterans Nov. 11.

* Outback Steakhouse: Free Bloomin' Onion appetizers and beverages to veterans and active duty military on Nov. 11.
* Uno Chicago Grill: Buy one, get one free entrees or individual pizzas for veterans and active duty military on Nov. 11.
* Ufood Grill: One free meal to veterans and active-duty personnel on Nov. 11.
