The Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum in Nashville, Tennessee, is set to commemorate Veterans Day by offering free admission to active-duty and retired armed services members and their families on Monday, November 11. The museum will extend this gesture to include up to three immediate family members of these military personnel. Visitors will also have the chance to express gratitude to military members by creating postcards for active-duty troops between 10 a.m. and noon at the museum’s Taylor Swift Education Center. The postcards will be sent to troops overseas through A Million Thanks, a nonprofit organization supporting military members.
The museum recognizes the contributions of country music stars who served in the U.S. military, including Hall of Fame members like Johnny Cash, George Jones, Willie Nelson, and Elvis Presley.
