You are hitting the end of the infamous Jersey Week from the 4th through the 7th. Despite all the hype, the crowds aren't that bad. The longest waits are usually 20 minutes.
As for Veteran's Day, that is my DS's birthday. There are larger crowds on that day especially at MK since they do some sort of special ceremony. Last year we ate at Chef Mickey's that night and then hoped to catch the monorail back to the Poly after the fireworks. What a nightmare! Eventually, my family of 4 decided to split into 2 separate monorail trips. This year we are having his birthday dinner at WCC to avoid the whole thing.
