What a great idea! Disney is offering free admission to Disneyland and Walt Disney World to active and retired members of the military—plus active and retired members of the U.S. Coast Guard and activated members of the National Guard or Reservists.

Walt Disney World Resort
Through December 23, 2009, receive one free 5-day Park Hopper pass with the Water Park Fun & More option, getting you admission to all four theme parks plus five visits to other select WDW attractions, including its two water parks (disneyworld.com/military). Select resorts are also offering discounts of up to 40 percent.

Disneyland Resort
Through June 12, receive a free 3-day Park Hopper pass, admitting you to Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure. You can also purchase up to five 3-day adult or child companion tickets for the price of a 1-day ticket. For more information or to make reservations, you can call 714/956-6424.

Space Mountain is closing at Walt Disney World in Florida on April 19 for refurbishment. Among other things, the popular roller coaster will have the entire length of its track replaced. It's unknown how long the repairs will take.

There is no way for them to tell if you are on active duty or not just looking at your ID (CAC) card. So it shouldn't matter?
