Yes. Texas Parks & Wildlife offers free state parks pass for eligible veterans (free annual pass for active duty) for eligible veterans, active duty & gold star families. Verification: Military ID / DD-214.
Apply online or at any state park. A VA Veteran ID Card, VA health card, veteran-marked driver's license, military or retiree ID, or a DD-214 copy works at most places. Online offers usually verify through ID.me, SheerID or GovX.
Not always. Franchise, airport and travel-plaza locations can opt out of national promotions, so call your local Texas Parks & Wildlife before you go.
