Should all veterans have access to the Army and Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES) and Navy...
There has been much discussion in recent years of allowing all veterans to have access to AAFES and NEX. Many oppose it because of "benefit creep", where they think that will just lead to veterans getting more benefits later. Some think that erosion of benefits for active duty service members (and reserve component members when on active duty), as compared to the public at large, would result.
