What is needed to show proof of being a former Vet?

Will VFW Lifetime Membership Card be proof enough?

Hi David, Thanks for reading and commenting! Everyone is invited to visit the parks for free in honor of our Vets, not just the vets themselves. So you don’t need anything at all.

Best,

Monica
