“It’s our privilege to provide unprecedented access to this historic event to U.S. military service members and veterans, where the world’s greatest athletes will compete against the backdrop of one of the most beautiful cities in the world,” Dexter told the crowd.

Due to content rights restrictions, an active ShopMyExchange.com account is necessary. Outside of the continental United States, viewers must be physically present at a military installation with internet service provided by an authorized provider in order to receive access.

“The Olympics are one of the world’s biggest events, and we’re excited to help our military community cheer on Team USA,” Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Rich Martinez, the Exchange’s senior enlisted adviser, stated.
