After a change in Department of Defense policy, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service is opening its doors to DoD and Coast Guard civilian employees at Fort Hood, starting May 1. The DoD announced the policy change April 29. Access to ShopMyExchange.com will start later this year.
Opening exchange access to DoD and Coast Guard civilian employees working on installations will improve dividends to quality-of-life programs, leverage the military exchangesâ buying power and strengthen the Exchange benefit for Soldiers, Airmen and Guardians âpast, present and future. Â
âShopping the Exchange brings convenience to civilians working on installations,â said Exchange Director/CEO Tom Shull. âThey can stop by the Exchange for essentials on breaks or to and from work instead of shopping outside of the gate â and 100% of Exchange earnings go right back to the military community.â
