Allow DeCA employees to have purchasing priveleges.

Most of the employees are either veterans or dependents of active military or veterans. A percentage of all commissary purchases go back in to the military community and their families. Allowing DeCA employees to make purchases for themselves and their families will in effect help ease the burden that has fallen upon them in these hard economic times. It is easy for them to spend anywhere between $50-$150 or more per pay period. Multiply that by the number of employees times the number of commissaries worldwide and you will easily see millions of dollars monthly that can be used to go back into the military community and thus help offset some of the money used to pay salaries, purchase the proper equipment to help keep the store(s) clean and safe, and for any upgrades that are needed!
