AAFES to host annual Still Serving event Published Sept. 6, 2011 By Jeanette Dunmire Army & Air Force Exchange Service Public Affairs BARKSDALE AIR FORCE BASE, La. -- As part of its annual "Still Serving" weekend, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service will salute former Airmen by offering unique specials and events at the Barksdale Exchange September 23-25. "Still Serving" sales and benefits information is arriving in the mailboxes of approximately 800,000 Army and Air Force retirees. The flyer offers exclusive savings on a wide variety of products including 25 percent off on select items, $50 off any in-stock Toshiba notebook and several food court "meal deals." "At approximately 2.3 million, retirees account for 26 percent of the Exchange's 12.3 million authorized shoppers," said the Exchange's General Manager Gilbert Mata. "The specials offered in this year's mailer, combined with the host of "Still Serving" events and festivities, should provide plenty of incentive for retirees to come and rediscover the value the Barksdale Exchange offers." Shoppers can learn more about activities planned for the weekend of 23 September by calling the Barksdale Main Exchange at (318) 752-9227.
