Exchange remains open

AAFES

Despite sequestration, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service does not foresee any changes to its day-to-day operations.

“We expect Exchange facilities to be fully functional throughout the sequester,” said the Exchange’s Chief of Staff Col. Thomas Ockenfels. “We continue to remain flexible as we help Soldiers, Airmen and their Families thrive in this environment. Whether it’s a Main Store, Military Clothing or a fast food restaurant, all operations will continue.”

Sequestration is not expected to result in the closure of Exchange facilities.

What about the commissary?

Sequestration has not resulted in changes to the commissary’s hours of operation. They are:

• 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Sunday

• 7 a.m.-9 p.m. Monday-Friday

• 7 a.m.-7 p.m. Saturday
