for other poor non-americans like me, who heard the term aafes first time in their shitty non-freedomy life:

The Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES, also referred to as The Exchange and post exchange/PX or base exchange/BX) provides goods and services at U.S. Army, Air Force, and Space Force installations worldwide, operating department stores, convenience stores, restaurants, military clothing stores, theaters and more nationwide and in more than 30 countries and four U.S. territories.

As an American who didn’t know and was afraid to ask, thank you. Had no idea. Now I wanna see some of that sweet sweet space force merch.

You know how the Army has soldiers, the Navy has sailors, and the Air Force has airmen? The Space Force has "guardians".

Dont be afride to ask questions. Remember, there are no stupid questions, only stupid people.

I guess you have an internet capable device in your vincinity. If you are afraid your fellow americans would make fun of your crippledness,you can use an internet search engine on that device without notifying your peers!

It’s like a Costco membership, you just have to sign your life away to Uncle Sam for a few years
