DALLAS – The Army & Air Force Exchange Service will honor former U.S. National Security Advisor Robert “Bud” McFarlane with its inaugural Quality-of-Life Force Multiplier Award on Dec. 11 during an on-field presentation at the 122nd Army-Navy Game.
“As a Naval Academy graduate, Marine, combat veteran, White House Fellow, respected diplomat and Cold War strategist, Bud has always answered our Nation’s call,” said Exchange Director/CEO Tom Shull, USMA Class of 1973. “The Exchange salutes Bud’s many contributions to the security of all Americans.”
McFarlane was a staunch advocate for extending a lifelong online shopping benefit to honorably discharged Veterans at ShopMyExchange.com. The benefit, championed by Shull and the Exchange, launched on Veterans Day 2017, giving all who served with honor tax-free shopping online and military-exclusive pricing for life.
The Exchange’s Quality-of-Life Force Multiplier Award honors those have made significant contributions to Warfighters and their families. McFarlane will be the first to receive the award, which will become an annual tradition at America’s Game.
The Exchange, the Department of Defense’s largest retailer, has been a participating partner of the Army-Navy Game presented by USAA since 2018.
