The move is designed to redirect money to align with war-fighting needs.Officials are looking to close garrison dining facilities as the first way to drive down costs, according to an executive order by the logistics office of Army headquarters.

"...The executive order indicates that full-service contracts will be maintained in Fort Bragg-associated Key West, Camp Mackall and the U.S. Army Special Warfare Center and School. All other locations will be run by Army cooks, according to the executive order..."

Way back in the day unit Mess Halls strived to be "the best".

Our soldiers don't need no stinkin food....... :rolleyes:

I'm surprised we still have a standing Army/Navy after 7 years of the kenyan.

You forgot SHARP Training.

If a combat Infantryman marches on the needs of his stomach then I guess this move makes perfect sense.

Either we don't need men or we no longer need the Infantry.

Beans and Bullets and I hear the bullets have already been in short supply.

Give everyone an EBT card on enlistment, save the hassle for later...

Good call. You'll be the next Health and Human Services Director.

I'll be firing people on day 1. :D

I watched (with a strong stomach) as the suits & uniforms on the hill this morning tried to convince some Senators that F-35 was on track*. One politician pointed pointed out that the reduction of a few jets in the final quantity would put 650 Special Operations Soldiers in the field. They were no more impressed by that than they've been over that stupid CAS role.


* Defined as all operational variants fielded by 2040. Yep. Twenty.Forty.
:rolleyes:

Eh they don't even really need a chow hall at Camp Mackall. No one out there is hungry anyway.
