Veteran's Day in America is one of the most celebrated and generous holidays of the year. And although this Veteran's Day will be celebrated on Monday, Nov. 12 because the rightful day happens to land on a Sunday, it does not mean that restaurants and retailers won't be offering huge discounts and free meals to the men and women who have served our country over the past 100 years.
