This is crazy, it’s a deliberate effort to demoralize the troops.
These people are the last people that need to be lectured about being in a war. Having something small yet enjoyable - a piece of pizza, etc, in frickin AFGHANISTAN doesn’t suddenly make the person forget where they are or somehow take their focus off what they’re doing.
R & R is important to let these guys decompress a bit. Otherwise they’ll burn out and be no good for themselves or anyone else. If a little pizza or a movie from home can help keep people uplifted while in a crappy place doing a crappy job almost all others wouldn’t, then that should be done and recognized as a positive thing for the troops.
Especially after 5 tours.
Time to up the supplies via the FReeper canteen.
