AAFES
Delivers Valuable Learning Experience to Students Who “Make
the Grade”
DALLAS
– The Army & Air Force Exchange Service is extending a
host of straight “A” savings to military students who are
demonstrating above-average academic achievement. As part of
AAFES’ “You Made the Grade” effort, students who maintain
a “B” average are eligible to receive a variety of
complimentary exchange offers for every qualifying report card
they bring home.
The
current “You Made the Grade” booklet includes coupons for a
free Burger King Hamburger Kids meal, complimentary admission
for two to the nearest Reel Time movie theater and a free
magazine from the local BookMark. In addition to money saving
offers, the booklet also contains an entry form for a quarterly
savings bond drawing in which three winners are randomly awarded
savings bonds of $2,000, $3,000 or $5,000.
“‘You
Made the Grade’ offers a practical learning experience for
AAFES’ youngest shoppers,” said AAFES’ Commander Brig.
Gen. Keith Thurgood. “The coupons and the sweepstakes are
tangible examples of how it pays to be smart and work hard in
school.”
To
receive the AAFES “You Made the Grade” booklet, students
simply present a valid military ID card and proof of an overall
“B” or better average to their local BX/PX.
Students
may receive one coupon package for every qualifying report card,
but may enter the savings bond drawing only once per calendar
quarter. Military families can contact their local AAFES Main
Store Manager or General Manager for more information.

Saving for
college? Use your commissary benefit
By Carole Young
FORT
LEE, Va. – Ask young service members today why they
enlisted or re-enlisted in the military and often their
reply will be – education. For many young people with
limited financial resources, military service has become a
viable option to offset the increasing cost of a higher
education. And one of the best ways college-bound service
members can save for that education is by using their commissary
benefit.

Commissary
“Grab-n-Go” goes to school
By Herb Greene
FORT
LEE, Va. – Oh no! This can’t be happening. Your wife
had an early formation. The command group called and wants
you off leave and back on duty now. The school bus has
just turned onto your street and you haven’t made
lunches for the kids. If you’ve got packaged meals from
the commissary, however, there’s
no need to panic...
