Sunday Free Entrée Offer Enables Veterans’ Families to Dine Together During the Weekend

McCormick & Kuleto’s Seafood Restaurant (in San Francisco in Ghirardelli Square/(415) 929-1730) and Spenger’s Fresh Fish Grotto (in Berkeley at 1919 Fourth Street/(510) 845-7771) have announced that for the thirteenth year in a row they will be offering all U.S. military veterans a free lunch or dinner entrée, this time on Sunday, Nov. 13, 2011, in appreciation for their service to our country.

McCormick & Kuleto’s and Spenger’s Fresh Fish Grotto will hold this event on the Sunday immediately after the national Veterans’ Day holiday (which falls on a Friday this year) to make it easier for families to dine together with the veterans in their lives. Reservations are highly recommended.

The restaurants will offer a free entree to those defined as a veteran by the Veterans Administration, Title 38 US Code 101, which is a person who served in the active military, Army, Navy, Air Force or Coast Guard, and who was discharged or released under conditions other than dishonorable. Veterans will be asked to show proper identification.

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, as well as a number of state Veterans Departments, has lauded this Veterans Appreciation program.

About Veterans Day:

Veterans Day began in November of 1918 as Armistice Day, the universal recognition to the celebrated ending of World War I fighting. After the Korean War, Congress requested Armistice Day be changed to honor those who have served the United States in all wars, conflicts and in the course of duty. In 1954, President Eisenhower signed a bill proclaiming the occasion Veterans Day.
