The Defense Commissary Agency would like to lavish some well-deserved attention on the military mom for a change. During this promotion, commissaries stateside and overseas will roll out their "red carpets" for mothers who populate all segments of the military community. Each store will highlight a special shopping area for military moms, a place where mothers can purchase discounted products to treat themselves or where their husbands, children and grandchildren also can do the honors.

It's the commissary's way of saying "Thank you" to a customer demographic that represents about 80 percent of daily commissary shoppers. Commissary customers can expect to see banners and posters that point the way toward product displays designed especially for mom.

They also will see product giveaways and demonstrations as well as an emphasis on women's health articles posted on the DeCA Web site, https://www.commissaries.com, in the Ask the Dietitian forum.
