Army & Air Force Exchange Service celebrates 126th anniversary with $1.26 express deals in July

MISAWA AB – The Army & Air Force Exchange Service is celebrating its 126th with special deals at Express stores and restaurants throughout July.

On July 25, 1895, the War Department issued General Order 46 directing commanders to establish an exchange at every post. Since then, exchanges have faithfully served military members wherever they are called to serve.

To mark the anniversary, Misawa Airmen and other military shoppers can enjoy $1.26 deals on snack favorites and more at the Express from July 1 to July 31.

On July 25—the Exchange’s official anniversary—shoppers will receive $1.26 off all combo meals at participating Misawa Exchange restaurants.

“Since July 25, 1895, it has been our honor to serve those who serve and give back to the military community,” said Misawa Exchange General Manager Michickia Carter. “Through war, natl disasters and even global pandemics, the Exchange is privileged to be there for our Airmen, retirees, Veterans and military families.”
