| Both Fort Bragg and Pope AFB are located in
Fayetteville, North Carolina close to a number of unique historical sites.
For more than half a century, Fort Bragg has had a proud heritage as “Home of the Airborne,” the XVIII Airborne Corps, the 82nd Airborne Division (“All American”), the U.S. Army Special Operations Command, and the Army’s largest support command. Encompassing approximately 200,000 acres, it is one of the largest military installations in the world and serves over 45,000 assigned troops. Pope AFB, nestled at the northern tip of Fort Bragg is one of Air Mobility Command’s busiest bases. Pope’s 43rd Airlift Wing provides essential airlift capability to the armed forces and is capable of deploying a self-sustaining war fighting package anywhere in the world at a moment’s notice. Much like a city, Fort Bragg and Pope AFB have their own schools, shopping malls, medical facilities, housing, churches, and a wide array of sports and recreational activities. AAFES’ Fort Bragg/Pope AFB Exchange is one of the largest in the world. Nearly 1000 exchange associates proudly serve customers in a wide variety of facilities. Among many offerings Bragg/Pope Exchange boasts 2 “main” exchanges, 9 shoppettes, 6 gas-selling locations, 5 food courts, and 3 stand-alone fast food restaurants. Why shop the PX/BX? We save you money everyday! The recent independent Market Basket survey shows that, on average, you’ll save 22.09% shopping at your local exchange. Survey details are available on www.aafes.com. We survey locally. Our full time price surveyor knows who has the lowest prices every day . . . nobody. Modern retailing is very competitive and AAFES is in the thick of it. If our efforts fall short, our customers know that we’ll match a competitor’s price on an identical item. Remember too, you don’t pay tax at the PX/BX. Part of the AAFES mission is to provide a dividend for the MWR programs of the Army and the Air Force. Those dividends really get a boost each time a customer makes purchases with the Military Star Card. The Star Card has a minimal fee, while AAFES pays substantial fees to accept Visa, Master Card, Discover, and American Express. Apart from an attractive interest rate and free shipping for orders from the Military Exchange Mail Order Catalog, the Star Card has a 6% deployment policy. Details are available on-line at www.aafes.com. Finally, we appreciate your patronage and consider our Military and their families to be the best customers in the world! We are focused on our customer and welcome you to provide comments to me at wynnfg@aafes.com, and I look forward to hearing from you. Floyd Wynn
