I had heard that firemen and families were admitted free to SW, but I can't find any information regarding this. Anyone know if this is true. Thanks

I know they did this back after 9/11. But I have not heard of them offering it lately.

Here is the Eligibility from the Sea World/Busch Gardens Hero Salute Website. The way this reads is no. I wish that they did do this for retired, because I think a lifetime of service should be entitled too.
