For Salute to Service Month, meet a Veteran who says the Exchange has given him a sense of purpose and belonging.

As a Veteran and as an associate, she has experience with vital tastes and comforts of home.

The Fort Sill main store manager talks about the importance of establishing bonds with younger troops.

“The Exchange truly understands the military lifestyle and supports spouses like me every step of the way,” the Military Clothing store manager says.

The Express manager is Air Force Veteran, former military spouse and a military brat who says she’s willing to stay open late to serve the troops.

The 33-year associate is a military brat, an Air Force father and a military spouse who met his wife at the Exchange.

The 22-year associate and military spouse remains just as inspired by her work as the day she joined the Exchange.

During his 33-year Exchange career, the Army Veteran has risen from janitor to Express store manager. “Most organizations don’t give you that kind of opportunity,” he says.

The military spouse’s fondest memories come from the flexibility the Exchange offered when her children were young.

““People work for the Exchange because they love their jobs,” the military spouse says. “I couldn’t have worked here for 24 years if I didn’t love it..”
