Exchange associates provided food, drinks, personal hygiene items to first responders in the aftermath of 9-11.

In addition to their regular shifts at their Exchanges, nearly 150 associates from throughout Washington, D.C., worked at a mobile field exchange on the Pentagon grounds after the 9/11 terror attacks. They served more than 2,000 first responders.

In New York City, dozens of associates from Brooklyn’s Fort Hamilton staffed mobile field exchanges scattered around the city to serve first responders at the World Trade Center.
