Yokota Exchange celebrates youngest heroes with events, prizes during Month of the Military Child

Yokota Air Base – The Army & Air Force Exchange Service is saluting Yokota’s youngest heroes with a monthlong celebration of free events, activities and prizes during Month of the Military Child.

For the sixth year, the Exchange will give away military “brat” patches starting April 1. Military children can visit the customer service area at the Yokota Exchange to receive a collectible patch while supplies last.

“The Exchange honors the important role that children of service members have in the Yokota community,” said Yokota Exchange General Manager Andrew Defelice. “Military children face unique challenges every day, and the Exchange is excited to provide opportunities for America’s youngest heroes to take a break from their routines and enjoy fun activities at the Yokota Exchange.”
