Angela Halstead

Angela has been with the MCS for five years and is committed to our mission of providing the best customer service to our Soldiers. As the wife of an Army retiree, Angela understands the needs of the Soldiers with her knowledge of insignias and uniforms. She has professional and social grace when interacting with her customers and gains their trust in meeting their needs for inspections, preparing for the board and funeral details. Angela is well-received by her co-workers and eager to share her knowledge with them. During the rollout of the Army Green Service Uniforms on June 7, 2021, Angela assisted in uniform fittings, creating sales of $7486+ in department 18. She is so knowledgeable when discussing the MILITARY STAR_® 20001 plan to our Soldiers.  Every day, Angela utilizes our company core values to keep our customers happy. She is truly an asset to MCS and makes a profound impact every day.

Rachel Harriger

She has taken the leadership role to heart, ensuring the facility is always covered and our associates stay motivated. Rachel has worked for the Exchange for over 16 years as part of the Burger King brand and many of our customers look for her, as she has become the face of BK. She has truly stepped up and we all appreciate having her as part of the team!
