ATLANTA, Nov. 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Krystal®, the Southern brand known for its iconic square burgers, announced today that in honor of Veteran's Day, it is offering two of its favorite breakfast features to all service men and women at no charge plus giving our nation's heroes more reasons to come back for the balance of the day. From 6 AM to 11 AM, on Wednesday, November 11, 2015, all active and retired military can receive a free chicken or free sausage biscuit.

The free breakfast offer for military requires a valid military ID, honorable discharge card or by wearing a military uniform. The $0.50 Pups and Corn Pups just require a healthy appetite. The offer is good for both dine-in and drive thru guests.
"Partnering with the ASYMCA was a natural fit for Krystal. We are a Southern brand with restaurants located near many of the dozens of military bases that defend and protect our nation and we serve our active and reserve military in our restaurants all the time," said Jason Abelkop, Chief Marketing Officer. "We want to show our appreciation and offer military members a way to start their day of honor with one of our most popular breakfast products, as well as allow our civilian guests to give back to those who selflessly serve our country every day."
#VETERANSMATTER TO GIVE STEAMER PACKS ALL DAY
According to businessinsider.com, in 2013, 44% of all military recruits came from the Southern region of the U.S. despite it having only 36% of the country's 18-24 year-old civilian population. No matter where you're from, this Veteran's Day, Krystal is bringing Southern hospitality to troops around the country. Every hour from 11 am to 6 pm, the brand will randomly select several deserving soldiers, from Twitter and Instagram, and gift them with a 24-pack of Krystal burgers. Krystal believes #VeteransMatter.
"Our soldiers go – and have gone – wherever they are needed. We just want to say thanks by sending them a taste of home," Abelkop said.
The offers cannot be combined with any other coupons or discounts.
