MARINE CORPS AIR STATION IWAKUNI, Japan — The Marine Corps Exchange here, the only Marine Corps exchange not on U.S. soil, now allows shipping for any item in its catalog. Some items labeled “for delivery to CONUS (continental United States) only” now are sent to Marine Corps Community Services via Iwakuni Port, officials said.

Once in Japan, items go to the MCX warehouse until shoppers are notified and arrive for pickup, MCCS retail officials stated. Free delivery is offered to buyers on or within five miles of post. Orders must be made by calling toll-free 00531-114132 from Japan and full payment must be made with a major credit card or Military Star Card.

The Marine Corps Exchange Catalog is published twice each year, costs $5 at the exchanges and has a $10 coupon toward purchases from the catalog. Quarterly supplements to the catalog are free. Call DSN 253-5641 for more information.
