Those 3 look like they could use those beaters, spatulas and spoons for weapons, in addition to cooking:')

Most cooks can put out a decent meal and not hear a word of thanks...but they sure will hear from those one or two who are never satisfied with the food (the true conservatives of the chow hall).
Over time that can have an impact on the cook's own morale and performance. I always went out of my way to thanks the cooks for a good meal, and compliment them for the better then average.

I did kitchen duty for 2 weeks before we deployed for Desert Storm ... that's a backbreaking 16 hour a day job that is absolute hell on your cammies.
Ever since then I had a new respect for Marine Cooks and the food was never bad.
Go cooks! Semper Fi!

Wonder how many times Marine cooks have picked up a rifle to help out...I bet more than a handful...

Marine cooks do a fine job, that's for sure.
But I hated the regs which said that every steak had to be cooked well done.
It's blasphemy I tell ya...

A friend of mine, a Marine cook circa 1970, was busted a rank in Vietnam for punching a 2nd Lt. The officer pulled the cook, who was sleeping, out of his rack and got in his face for making the brown cake with the white icing instead of the white cake with the brown icing.
