These are third-party or user-generated statements, not substitutes for the Aquarium's current page. The community poster's claimed job title is not independently verified.

Other search results do not add Aquarium terms
The official Discounts and Promotions overview lists a U.S. Military Discount card but leaves the detailed terms to the dedicated page. The official homepage links to that promotions page but gives no military-specific terms. This Is Mystic directs readers to the Aquarium's official page; its preceding military-discount wording is under a separate Mystic Seaport heading and is not transferred to the Aquarium.
