I can’t find it on Yahoo, but here’s Bloomberg article link:

Thanks for a proper link. The article explains why this is so but it is nevertheless disturbing to read. I was sitting next to a GS employee on a recent flight and he informed me that most commissaries and exchanges in the US will be closed next year for budgetary reasons. I guess our stateside troops are getting an early tase of what the future holds.
