This directive does not apply to children younger than age 2 or people with difficulty breathing or unable to remove the mask without assistance.  Patrons are advised to bring their own face coverings and put them on before entering these locations.

Also starting on Monday, April 13, the commissary and main post exchange will institute daily early bird hours from 9 to 10 a.m. for all retirees, people over 60, pregnant women and persons with significant medical issues. The early bird hours will occur every Monday through Saturday until further notice.

These stores and all Army & Air Force Exchange Services express stores will limit the number of customers who can be inside at one time.

Hand sanitizing stations are located in between each gas pump at all post gas stations. Customers are advised to use the hand sanitizing stations before and after use of the gas pump. Additionally, Soldiers at the gas stations will be sanitizing all gas pump handles and number pads once per hour to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
