why don't they also include anyone with service in the Military to our Great Country. my husband served 6 years with the US ARMY, TWO tours fighting in Vietnam, why doesn't he count when it comes to the military discounts. talk about discriminating.

Not discriminating at all, there is no innate right to discounted Disney tickets for anyone. When I was in I always took advantage of the Disney special offers. As a disabled Vet, I also wish that I could get a discount, but I can't. I think it's wonderful to see that Disney offers the discounted tickets that they do because it means that families who are serving now (especially enlisted folks on limited budgets) can still enjoy Disney.

They would not be giving the discount to everyone just include veterans.I agree with the others that if you served your country and did not retire they should include them in the discounts. If you have a DD214 then include in discounts. I feel I game this country 5 years and my husband gave this country 13 years of our lives why can't they give us something. We got nothing.
To respond to Kristen- you got an ID card since you are disabled
and can uses military facilities. Having the military ID you can still use the military hotel on Disney and get some discounts. I have read all small print about the Disney military hotel. To stay there you need to have Id card. We got nothing from serving our country. Not even able to use military post or PX or Commissary since not Id card.

Lisa - Not all disabled vets get a military ID card. I have none of those privileges.
