True or false: All commissary items must be purchased through payroll deductions.

The statement that all commissary items must be purchased through payroll deductions is false. Commissary items can often be purchased using various methods, which may include cash, credit/debit cards, or other payment options, not just through payroll deductions. This flexibility in purchasing methods allows personnel more options based on their individual circumstances and preferences.

While payroll deductions might be a common method for certain items or during certain situations (like deployment), it is not mandated for all commissary purchases. This helps ensure that all individuals, regardless of their payroll status, have access to necessary items without being limited to one purchasing method. Thus, the correct understanding of commissary operations reflects that there are multiple avenues for making these transactions.
