An article on military.com discusses that the problem with closing only some of the commissaries is overall prices will raise because they buy in high volume. By closing the larger stores like Belvoir they will lose that edge in pricing, and that will impact the stores that will be left open.
I believe they said that 24 stores will not close because of their remote location, like Irwin, and the OConus in AK and Hawaii.
In essence by leaving just these stores open all it maybe doing is creating a slow death spiral for the commissaries anyway.
