U.S. Army Ends Free Storage of Vehicles, Belongings for Deployed Soldiers
Breitbart ^ | 12-28-23 | OLIVIA RONDEAU

Deployed U.S. Army soldiers will no longer be able to store their belongings free of charge while they are away from home, the Army Sustainment Command announced Wednesday.

A spokesman for the command, which is the primary provider of logistics support to Army units, told Military.com that it was discontinuing the use of funds to store soldiers’ vehicles and other goods while they are away for prolonged periods of time.

It was not specified whether the announcement applies to all deployment types or just to soldiers on temporary duty.

The storage policy ended in October, but the order was not “widely distributed” to soldiers or the press, the outlet reported.

“We understand the burden this could potentially place on soldiers, and HQDA G-1 [The Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel, Department of the Army] is drafting policy that would enable such storage,” service spokesman Sgt. Pablo Saez said.

That new “policy” was only mentioned after Military.com first reached out to the Army about the issue in early December, the outlet noted.

This is what happens when you replace good American patriot leadership with America-hating cultural Marxists.

Why not just put Iran’s republican guard in charge or Xi’s commie military? It would amount to the same thing.

THANKS BIDEN!!!!!

I’m so glad I retired during the Trump era, before some socialist posing as president decided to ____ over the troops.

I’m especially glad I did not have to serve under this bozo. Serving under Obama was enough trauma for a lifetime.

You can buy a lot more things when you aren’t buying Jordan shoes.

Haha, or Dodge Challengers. Says my son who is currently stationed at Fort Campbell.

When they come back from deployment will they be installing parking meters where they park on base?

100% UTTERLY DEMORALIZING decision.

I was in a high-speed low-drag unit, for those that know, and I wanted nothing to do with the REGULAR slacker LEG Army, and this was back in 1982.

Fast forward to today, what with WOKENESS, DEI, ESG, BLM, CRT, ETC., and how the US MIL maintains its recruiting goals is anybody’s guess, so... to kick current GI’s in the teeth, is so egregious that it can only be calculated and intentional, done by rear echelon affirmative action QUOTA protected class warfare spewing nonhackers and likely a majority of Obama’s sons and daughters.

We live in interesting times. These may turn out to be the most interesting times anyone has *ever* seen, or ever *will* see...

Or maybe not. Only GOD knows.

My Eph 5:10-16 pleasure! And thank YOU for all YOU do.

Anatomically closer to Lawrence Taylor than Taylor Swift, I’m afraid. Sorry to disappoint. ;-)

So we headed over to the lot , cut the gate chain, fed the German Shepherd a steak and I stole my car back.

That must have been a real long time ago. Most tow yards/impound lots have cameras everywhere. I know people who managed them in the 1970s.

Most of those storage containers could be repurposed to house a couple hundred illegals. Someone nameless will be assigned to “fix” the quarterly budget in favor of the invaders.

This is designed specifically to kill recruitment and retention...and is completely unwarranted.
