Veterans and Active Military Eat Free at TravelCenters of America on Veterans Day

WESTLAKE, OH. - TravelCenters of America, part of the bp portfolio, is continuing its tradition of inviting all active-duty military, veterans, and reservists to enjoy a complimentary meal on Veterans Day, November 11, 2024, at participating quick-service and full-service restaurants at TA, Petro, and TA Express locations nationwide.

Veterans must present proof of service before ordering. Proof of service can include a Uniformed Services ID card, current Leave and Earnings Statement (LES), veterans’ organization membership card, photograph in uniform, DD214 form, a citation, or commendation.

In addition to the free meal, TA is again sponsoring Wreaths Across America, a non-profit committed to keeping the memory of fallen heroes alive by placing wreaths on gravesites at America’s national cemeteries. This has become a long-standing tradition every holiday season at TA to remember those who have made the greatest sacrifice of all. In addition to purchasing wreaths for cemeteries nationwide, TA team members will gather December 14 to participate in a wreath-laying event at the Ohio Western Reserve National Cemetery.

TA advocates for veterans year-round by promoting job opportunities and working with the military’s Transition Assistance Program (TAP) assisting active military and their families in job placement. TA also partners with the Special Operators Assistance Foundation (SOTF) to help retiring military members transition into civilian corporate careers.
