The shift manager at Fort Moore’s Harmony Church Express celebrated her 32nd anniversary with the Exchange this month.

The 12,808-square-foot troop store provides a convenient shopping experience for Soldiers, students in advanced individual training and Airmen, Guardians, Sailors and Marines.

The restaurant, which serves pizza, pasta and more, is the latest in a series of improvements at Fort Liberty.

General Manager Thomas “TK” Kuttamperoor and Starbucks Store Manager Karolyn Madera received top corporate awards from Starbucks for their leadership and execution of the Military Family store recognition.

Customer Experience Associate John Dickson says he was surprised to learn he’d been selected as the worldwide ambassador.

Fort Liberty’s first Potbelly is also the first at any Exchange.

The self-serve retail market offers better-for-you options, such as salads, sandwiches, protein bars and fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as hot and cold beverages.

“The Patrick team’s understanding of the unique needs of of service members and their families exemplifies the spirit of serving those who serve,” Director/CEO Tom Shull said.

The main store manager reflects on her 37 years with the Exchange, including that time she had to keep an in-store visit from Robert Downey Jr. a secret.
