Memorial Day is designed for us all to pause, reflect, take a knee, and to remember those that have sacrificed their lives for our safety.

If you're active duty military or a veteran, you can score some extra discounts this 4th of July at some great spots around East Texas. Don't miss these chances to save.

Over a hundred Texas museums will let active duty military members and their families in free this summer, and a Nacogdoches museum is on the list.

All Schlitterbahn Water Parks are letting military members and first responders in free at different times this month, and we'll help you plan accordingly.

These retirees are young.  The average age of someone who retires from the military is 45, and it turns out Texas is one of the best places in America to put down new roots.  If you see military retirees at Memorial Day events this weekend, think they'll agree that they're in a good place?

There's already a memorial in this Texas town dedicated to the man that the movie, American Sniper, was based on.  And now Texas lawmakers are considering a bill that would name part of a highway after Chris Kyle.

We posted the story recently about the former US Marine who drowned in the Texas Hill Country trying to rescue two teens, and now the City of Bandera is looking for ways to honor him.

The US Army might not be known for it's awesome culinary creations, but at the very least they'd like to make the food better for the troops.  And if you're willing to eat MREs (Meals, Ready-to-Eat) for three solid weeks, you can help make that happen.

We here at Townsquare Media Lufkin want to say thank you to our enlisted men and women, and their families, in Lufkin, Nacogdoches, and surrounding areas who sacrifice so much for all of us all year long. Now through Veterans Day - November 11th - we’re supporting “Townsquare Cares for Military Families...

We already knew Aaron Rodgers was a good guy. This just further proved it.

There's nothing like being reunited with an old friend.
