Disney Cruise Line Discount Question

[WendyTinkerbell]

I saw that DCL sometimes offers a military discount as noted below and I was wondering what is meant by "Family Members Classified as 'Active Deceased'" and how do you prove that? Thanks!


The following are eligible for the Military rate:

• Active or retired military
• Air Force, Marines, Army (including Army National Guard), Navy, Coast Guard
• Reservists (for all branches listed above)
• Department of Defense, which includes:
  • FBI
  • CIA
  • National Security Agency
  • Secret Service
• Family members classified as “active deceased”
• NASA Kennedy Space Center
• NASA Johnson Space Center
• Department of Health and Human Services
• 100% permanently disabled

Limit 3 staterooms per ID. Active and retired members of the US military must show ID at the pier.

That's a new one on me. On a simple analysis of the words and context, I'd suggest it might mean something like family members of a servicemember who was KIA or died prior to completing their original enlistment, with the discount applying during the deceased person's original enlistment period; but again that's simply theorizing.
