Crown Carveries in Chesterfield are celebrating Armed Forces Day 2013 by treating all Army, Navy and Air Force men and women, past and present, to a free meal.
According to recent figures revealed by the MOD (Ministry of Defence), there are 4.6 million veterans across the country and over 176,000 current serving personnel who make up the current Armed Forces community, from serving troops to cadets and reservists across the Army, Royal Air Force and Naval Service; many of whom have risked their lives in battle to protect us back home here in the UK.

So now Crown Carveries in Chesterfield, including the De Rodes Arms in Barlborough and Young Vanish Inn in Glapwell, are offering all service personnel and veterans a complimentary full English breakfast or delicious carvery during the week leading up to Armed Forces Day (Monday 24th June to Saturday 29th June inclusive) to salute Her Majesty's Armed Forces.
Enjoying the free meal couldn't be easier. All those who are currently serving, or have served, in the forces, simply need to visit www.crowncarveries.co.uk or www.facebook.com/crowncarveries to download the 'Free Forces Meal' voucher and present this along with their current ID card (or veteran lapel badge) to staff at their local restaurant.
 Christopher Vose, Manager at the Young Vanish Inn Crown Carvery, said: "We pride ourselves in being the UK's most regal carvery brand, our name says it all, and as a result we feel best placed to support our serving and past troops on this commemorative day.
"An old saying states that 'an army marches on it's stomach', so we hope our full English breakfast or a royally good roast dinner will provide a hearty morale boost for all our proud veterans and hardworking military personnel, and help them to celebrate Armed Forces Day 2013."
Armed Forces Day 2013, which takes place on Saturday 29th June, is a nationwide celebration of Her Majesty's Armed Forces.
A number of parades, events and commemorations take place across the country, giving the public the opportunity to show their support for all serving force personnel and veterans, as well as those who have given their lives for the country.
