About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, a delivery driver pulled up to the commissary’s loading dock with a truck full of fresh groceries. As he unloaded boxes, something peculiar happened—each crate seemed heavier than the last, and when he finally opened one, it contained only air. Finally, after checking every box, he noticed that his colleague, a regular from another base, had accidentally swapped labels. The next day, everyone got a good laugh—and free bananas for a week.
2. At dawn, when most military bases are quiet, a strange figure began appearing in the commissary's aisles. It wasn't a shopper or a worker—it was an old teddy bear, its eyes glowing faintly in the dim light. One morning, a delivery driver noticed the bear and calmly picked it up. Turned out, it was just an old toy with a faulty flashlight inside. The base soon became known for its 'glowing teddy', and everyone started leaving extra snacks for him—especially during holidays.
3. In the early morning hours, before anyone else stirred, a soft humming started coming from inside the commissary's storage room. A night security guard first noticed it, but soon everyone on base wondered: who or what was making that mysterious tune? Curious soldiers began bringing their radios closer, trying to catch the melody. Turned out, it was just an old delivery driver humming his favorite song while unpacking groceries. By dawn, the whole base knew the tune—now everyone looked forward to hearing him sing in the pre-dawn quiet. The commissary became famous for its morning serenade.
4. At midnight, while the commissary was locked tight, a faint whirring sound echoed through empty aisles. A night watchman first noticed it, but soon everyone agreed: it wasn’t just his imagination. One night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off behind the wheel of a forklift, causing a box of canned beans to roll down the aisle like a tiny tsunami. Everyone laughed when they saw it in morning light—except the poor guy who had to clean up the mess.
