\"\"DALLAS \u2013<\/strong> In anticipation of the 124th<\/sup> Army-Navy Game presented by USAA on Dec. 9 in New England, the Exchange is launching a special message to service members, military families and Veterans with the help of a 53-foot rolling billboard.<\/p>\n

An Exchange trailer, wrapped with a design featuring the Boston skyline and \u201cWhere Heroes Make History\u201d in Constitution-style font, reminds the military community that their lifelong Exchange benefit delivers tax-free shopping and military-exclusive pricing all year long.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe truck wrap celebrates Boston\u2019s rich past and its role in American history,\u201d said Exchange Director\/CEO Tom Shull, West Point Class of 1973. \u201cThe \u2018Where Heroes Make History\u2019 theme emphasizes that America\u2019s service members are heroes, whether on duty or on the playing field.\u201d<\/p>\n

The trailer, based out of the Exchange\u2019s Dan Daniel Distribution Center in Newport News, Virginia, delivers needed tastes of home to stores, including Forts Liberty, Moore, Belvoir and more.<\/p>\n

This is the sixth year the Exchange is a participating partner of the Army-Navy Game. Thousands of Cadets, Midshipmen and fans at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, along with the millions who will tune in to the game on CBS, will hear the Exchange\u2019s story of supporting service members wherever our Nation\u2019s mission takes them.<\/p>\n

The Exchange is the Department of Defense\u2019s largest military retailer, serving troops and their families with more than 5,000 department stores, convenience stores, food courts, malls and movie theaters, in all 50 states and more than 30 countries.<\/p>\n
