I'll be you that Lucy Luckhurst can show you how to get these free meals without even having a photo ID, or even having been in the military.
I served in the CAP, an auxillary branch of the Air Force. I got right in with my card at the Golden Corral last year. Doin it again this year and according to the guy at Golden Corral all military and x military will have full access to the new Chocolate Wonder Fall there.

Though an excellent program, Civil Air Patrol is not the military.
Google: The CAP is not a military organization. CAP is not part of the Armed Forces of the United States, and CAP members are civilians, not military personnel by any stretch of the imagination. Members are not subject to the military code of conduct.
If your unit is really that in the dark, you might need to bring some people in from Group or something and get your leaders, both cadet and senior, some orientation and professional development training. This is a basic characteristic of our organization. It's akin to being in some other organization and not knowing whether it's a charity or a for-profit company.
Civil Air Patrol is a corporation, created by Public Law, with humanitarian missions (AE, CP, ES). CAP enjoys the status of the official Auxiliary of the United States Air Force, but we are the civilian auxiliary.
(The final test to prove CAP is not military is that some members can't even spell veteran correctly)
