    My husband is a vet (along with all 4 of his brothers and 1 of his sisters), so between the 6 of them, they know ALL the freebies! Thanks for adding to their list.

    I love that so many companies are supporting the military and their families! That’s such a good initiative. It is one thing that has always stood out to me when we visit the states – the amount of respect and kindness offered to troops.

    Sea World is part of Busch, so all of their parks offer the same admission – Busch Gardens & Sesame Place. We’ve taken advantage of it many times!

    How did I not know about these? Especially Sea World! We were just in Florida and considered an unplanned stop but now I definitely think we should plan a visit soon. This will be so helpful since we are a bigger family.

    These are awesome programs for military families. We visit SeaWorld San Diego very often because my daughter is the SeaWorld kid blogger and I’m always impressed by how much they give back to the community.

    I had no idea there were so many companies that offered free membership or admission to military. My husband and dad are both veterans and I will definitely need to share this with them.
