Nothing new about that, I got mine 5 or 6 years ago. Just bring your VA card showing you are service connected to any park entry station and they'll give you a pass. Rangers know about this. If they send you to the gift shop worker be prepared for head scratching and maybe a hard time.
And this not only applies to vets but if your doctor says you are permanently disabled for any cause, a letter from him will get a pass. That's when we had a problem with the gift shop lady.
Plus an extra added bonus, Florida residents get a state free pass lifetime renewable the same way, VA card. Check your state they may do the same.
We get a free day pass & 3 days free camping if SC, I didn't know about National Parks.
