“The Exchange wants to make holiday shopping easy for Soldiers, Airmen and their families,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt.

Military children identified Military Brat-Approved toys this summer during a special play-test event for military children age 6-12 at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph. Nearly 100 participants helped pick this year’s Military-Brat Approved toys.
The Exchange is also offering fee-free layaway through Dec. 24 to help parents keep their military brats’ gifts hidden from prying eyes. For information on fee-free layaway, contact your local Exchange’s customer service desk.
