I think that is only on line. But local commands may have leeway
So, I’m a 10 veteran, and I tried to go to Bethesda Navy Exchange. I was turned away even though I had my VA card and a copy of my DD 214. I was told, the only way your allowed on base at Walter Reed was if you were an employee or had a medical appointment. I explained I just wanted to go to the exchange and shop. It was denied. Things have really changed. This was actually my last active duty command before leaving active duty after 8 yrs of honorary service. I also shopped at the Navy Exchange in Norfolk, Va with no issues. ☹️
I think it's in any PX or Exchange give a call to the one you would like to shop at and confirm but I have seen veterans shopping at ours and it's so nice!
