Casinos honor military personnel with veterans specials


  • News

Atlantic City’s casinos are offering special discounts to honor veterans, the Casino Association of New Jersey announced just in time for Veterans Day.

“We are proud to honor America’s veterans who have bravely served our country, said Mark Giannantonio, CANJ president. “We are grateful for their sacrifice and their commitment to protecting the values and freedom we hold dear.”

He pointed to Bally’s Atlantic City General Manager Michael Monty, who served as an infantry officer in the Army from 2010 to 2015.

During an eight-month deployment to Southern Afghanistan, Monty led a 35-man infantry platoon in more than 150 mounted and dismounted missions to disrupt the Taliban and provide security for the local population, Giannantonio said.

Monty, who is CANJ’s trustee, commanded a 310-soldier company and was specially selected as a lieutenant to serve in a position normally held by a senior captain.

He earned a Ranger Tab, Airborne Wings, Expert Infantryman’s Badge and Combat Infantryman’s Badge.

“We are proud of Mike’s incredible service to our country and the contribution he brings to our industry,” Giannantonio said.
