'Zackly my point, too; offer "free meal," then make it up by surreptitiously
billing $2.34 for $0.05 worth of ice, colored water and sugar. (Cost of a
glass of iced tea may not be as low as $0.05, but you get my point - it's
not much.)

If they serve alcohol, and I think they do, the last thing they want
to do is say 'free booze for veterans'. Perhaps the free lunch could
include a single non-alcoholic beverage next time.
Restaurants make their highest profits stuff like soda and tea.
Virtually zero labor to prepare, product cost minimal (it's mostly
water) and charge $2.50 - $3.50 a glass.
