“It is an honor to acknowledge the men and women who have
sacrificed so much for our country by inviting them to our
restaurants to share a meal,” said Tom O’Brien, President and CEO
of TravelCenters. “We will also be honoring all of those who gave
their life defending our country by preparing Fallen Soldier Tables
at our restaurants. A single place setting at an empty table
represents the wish that fallen men and women of our armed forces
could be present to dine with us. Having set these tables on
patriotic days over the last few years in our restaurants,
employees at our sites have seen and shared in the emotion and
memories of those who lost friends and loved ones while serving.
It’s a moving and special experience for everyone,” continued
O’Brien.
This July 4th, any veteran, active duty or reservist from the
military can receive a complimentary meal of their choice from a
special Military Only menu, by simply showing proof of service to
their server prior to ordering their meal. Proof of service
includes: U.S. Uniform Services ID Card or Retired ID Card; Current
Leave and Earnings Statement; Veterans Organization Card;
Photograph in uniform; DD214; or Citation or Commendation.
This is the fifth year that TravelCenters is
honoring military with free meals in its restaurants on
Independence Day. TravelCenters has served more than 36,000 free
meals to veterans and active duty military service men and women in
the last four years.
