2014. This year, Veterans Day falls on a Tuesday, so be sure to look at the specific date the offer is valid.
Take Note: Most offers will require proof of service such as your current military ID (active or retired), a copy of your DD214, a copy of your leave and earning statement, or even a photo of yourself in uniform. Be sure to read the fine print so you come prepared.
