I don't recall if this has already been posted, but attached is a special 2009 offer from Disney for all Active Duty, Reserve, NG, and Retired military personnel. A free five day pass plus slashed rate for those accompanying them is pretty amazing. (I love their generosity!)

We are using our tickets next month and surprising our kids before Daddy leaves for a year. They think we are going to visit some friends in Florida.....
 
Have fun, Erin!!! I forwarded this info on to my dad who lives about 45 minutes from us...we went last year with our kids, but my folks haven't been there in a while and they've been thinking about going down there with their camper...this way they could get a few days in at the parks, too. :) Dad retired 12 years ago after 21 years of service. Thanks for the info, legacypc!
 
Oh man, I was all excited when I opened this but it is for retired military personnel and active Coast Guard and National Guard (reservist for National Guard too). We are Air Force.

This will be GREAT for all of you that can go!!

Yep we are staying at Shades of Green on our "surprise" trip. I cannot wait for my kids to realize that we are going to Disney NOT Ms Jen's house! They are going to FLIP out!!

We had a trip planned before they released this but thankfully had not booked anything!
 
Awesome, thanks for sharing!! Hubby comes home in Oct/Nov maybe we can squeeze in a few days!
 
My dad is retired AF, & my mom has always wanted to go.. I will pass this on to them! Thanks for sharing!
 
Hmmm...I hope they do this next year and we can use it with our incentive trip. We have 3 kids and were going to have to buy an extra ticket. If hubby can get in free, (he's retired Army), then maybe we won't have to! :D
