There are several places that will give free meals and other deals to veterans as a "thank you" this Sunday. Here's a partial listing of the ones you can find within our area.

Several national retailers and restaurant chains are showing their appreciation for our country's service men and women this Veteran's Day.

Here's a listing of the top 10 deals that veteran's-- especially here in SoCal-- may wish to take advantage of come Sunday... and even Monday, too!**
