Speaking of chowhalls, did you ever hear about Nellis serving horsemeat a few times? Seems the west coast contractor for the military substituted it a few times. I never noticed a difference myself.
I never ate at Nellis AFB chowhalls (oops, sorry, dining facilities), but had heard rumours. We had a contractor on site who killed a bunch when they washed out a tanker truck that had some chemical in it, the horses drank the runoff and a bunch died. They got fined a princely sum for that.
Come to think of it, we did have steak that night. Hmmmm...., A1 will make anything taste good I guess.
Cheers!
