NEXCOM, Virginia Beach, Va.--On Oct. 28 the Navy Exchange Service Command (NEXCOM) opened the system's newest and largest Navy Exchange in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The new joint venture with the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) is over 355,000 square feet and features a glass elevator, escalators, an indoor waterfall, a mural by world-renowned marine artist, Wyland, and most importantly, more space and merchandise for its customers.
