Fort Detrick

Fort Detrick Commissary is "OPEN" during the observance of the Juneteenth Holiday

Per Garrison Commander, Commissary requires face mask or protective facecoverings for customers, store employees regardless of vaccination status.

Commissaries are requiring some form of face covering for store employees and customers to enter a commissary. The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) guidance applies to all agency stores and other facilities worldwide where no local directive has yet been issued. DeCA’s guidance falls in line with April 5 Department of Defense guidance mandating that “all individuals on DoD property, installations, and facilities will wear cloth face coverings when they cannot maintain 6 feet of social distance in public areas or work centers.” Army Lt. Col. Angela Parham, DeCA’s director of health and safety, emphasized that PPE is only one part of the preventive measures required to help combat COVID-19.

“DOD’s face covering mandate aligns with CDC guidance to help prevent asymptomatic people, who may not know they’re infected, from spreading the virus to healthy folks,” Parham said. “Even when you wear a mask or other face covering, it is still important to practice good hand hygiene, social distancing, and refrain from touching your face.” Read the entire news release online.
