It’s a go: Commissary shoppers in eight locations around the country can now travel from their computer to their front door to pick up their groceries.

Commissaries at eight military installations are testing doorstep delivery of groceries within a 20-mile driving radius of the stores. If the test — which began today and runs through Aug. 30 — is successful, the plan is to eventually deliver groceries from all commissaries in the continental U.S. to customers on and off base.
