Wounded Warrior Hires Reach Milestone

The Exchange reached an important milestone this spring—the hiring of its 1,000th Wounded Warrior since 2010.

“We are honored to have so many Wounded Warriors in our Exchange family,” said Leigh Roop, chief human resources officer. “These brave men and women have sacrificed so much to ensure our freedoms at home. We are grateful that they continue to serve their country by playing a vital role in running the country’s oldest and largest exchange service.”

The Exchange has long been dedicated to providing career opportunities to military service members and their families. About 85 percent of the Exchange’s global workforce has a military connection, and 37 percent are Veterans, spouses and dependents.
