BETHESDA, Md. -
A gigantic line of people assembled
outside a new store in Bethesda, Saturday morning. And, when the ribbon
was cut, the shoppers streamed in to the newest Naval Exchange Store in
the world.
Many military posts offer retail
stores, but the one now open on the campus of the Walter Reed National
Military Medical Center is different.
"[Previously]
there was a store here," explained Capt. Fritz Kass, the commanding
officer of Naval Support Activity on the base. "It was about 40,000
square feet. This one's 150,000 square feet. So, the entire previous
store fits in our back-room storage."
The new
Navy Exchange is designed differently, with many extra-wide aisles to
more easily accommodate wounded warriors. This on-post store features a
food court, and, on its opening day, Subway spokesman Jared took a turn
behind the counter. It was clear from his speed, Jared has made
submarine sandwiches before.
Among the other
celebrities on hand for opening day: fitness guru Denise Austin, and
cable-tv chef Robert Irvine, who interrupted his book-signing for a
moment to remember this weekend marks a 237th birthday. "Happy birthday Marine Corps," Irvine shouted at our camera. Then he added: "Go, Navy!"
The
huge Navy Exchange is very "green" in its design. In fact, the roof is
covered with soil on which newly-planted grass seed is sprouting. The
"lawn on the roof" will provide better insulation, and it will reduce
runoff from rain and
snow.
Back
inside, military families will be able to buy everything from the
basics (such as detergent), to wine, beer, and spirits, to wide-screen
televisions -- all tax free.
In
part, because of the surrounding affluent area (where a lot of military
retirees live and work in their second careers), this Naval Exchange
has a rather high proportion of designer clothing, including Ralph
Lauren.
In
fact, the whole store has a rather upscale look. "It reminds me of like
a Macy's or something like that," observed retired Army Lt. Col.
Michael Sawyers who was purchasing a quilt and jewelry for his wife
I spent some time this Veteran's weekend at the military exchange at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center
in Bethesda, MD. There I met a Marine wounded in Afghanistan, Chad
Ohmer, along with his wonderful wife and newborn daughter. He is happy
to be alive and that he got his little daughter being born. I was sure
to thank this hero for his bravery and service.
