I find it odd that fees are waved for the Air Medal, and Bronze Star, but not for the Distinguished Flying Cross which is a higher award than both of those.RoyGBiv wrote:ETA: https://www.dfwairport.com/cs/groups/pu ... 122613.pdfRoyGBiv wrote:My Navy vet neighbor told me a few weeks ago that his plates get him free parking at the airport. I don't recall which commendation is noted on his plates but it's not the standard "US Navy" plate. I don't recall if that perk requires a specific commendation plate or whether the branch of service plates are sufficient. Might be worth checking into if your car spends a lot of time at the airport.

For instance, the North Texas Tollway authority has very limited exemptions.

In Central Texas, I am not charged for SH130, but I am charged for tolled portions of US290 and US183.
