\"Steve<\/p>\n

I’ve been going to the Walt Disney World Resort since the year it opened! I just love spending time in the parks and around the resort. My experience with the Disneyland Resort is not as long or extensive, but I’m working on that…<\/p>\n

I’m retired military, retired DoD Civil Service, and current Defense Contractor for the Air Force. I was also a Walt Disney World cast member for 3 years quite a while back in the middle of all my military service.<\/p>\n

My mission for the site is to help the military community learn about Disney’s military discounts and help them plan for a fantastic Disney vacation.<\/p>\n

You can learn a lot more about me<\/strong> here<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n
