For Women’s History Month, Flashback Friday once again remembers an Exchange female pioneer.

“We want to take care of our Soldiers—they’re why we’re here. It’s family serving family.”

The opening marked the Exchange’s entry into the health-care services business.

The decision was made because of the unprecedented circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Exchange leaders recognized Express shift manager Karla Navarro for her quick thinking in helping a Soldier while ensuring the safety of her customers and teammates.

In honor of Women’s History Month, Flashback Friday remembers Maj. Gen. Kathryn Frost, the Exchange’s first woman commander, who led the Exchange from August 2002 to April 2005.

A new, dedicated ShopMyExchange.com contact center is taking the online customer experience to the next level.

In case you missed it, here’s a breakdown of February’s best stories.

Throughout Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm—which ended in late February 1991—and beyond, the Exchange supported troops in Southwest Asia.

On Feb. 19, 1945—77 years ago this weekend—Marines landed on Iwo Jima.
