Golden Corral honors the military community through annual Military Appreciation Night
For 25 years, Golden Corral has held its Military Appreciation Night to honor those who wore the uniform. This year, the tradition takes place on Veterans Day, Wednesday, Nov. 11, from 4 p.m. to close.
During the event, Golden Corral restaurants nationwide will offer a complimentary meal and beverage to active-duty service members, veterans and military retirees as a token of
gratitude.
Through Military Appreciation Night, DAV chapters and departments have raised more than $21.5 million to support a wide range of services. In addition, Golden Corral has served more than 6.8 million complimentary meals, welcoming an average of 250,000 veterans each year.
DAV members are encouraged to visit their local Golden Corral to connect with fellow veterans and help celebrate a tradition dedicated to honoring the men and women who have served our country.
Send photos of your chapter or department at a Military Appreciation Night event to [email protected] by Nov. 13, and your photo could be selected for the January/February 2027 edition of DAV Magazine.
