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!

I worked in a JTF environment where we were all there. As a USAFR E6, I'm here to say that if I get to pick KPs, I'll take Army out of the brig, run by a Lance. With Navy doing paperwork.

JMPO.

Some AF guy told me that E5's couldn't wash pots and pans. He and I finished the night. I kicked the Army and Marines out of the DFAC (gave them the night off) and he and I discussed washing pots and pans.

Then he swept and mopped.

It's not a job. It's about love for our enlisted.

Our troops deserve the best. If you don't believe that... you don't want to pull KP in my kitchen.

Really.... Really.

I'm just old and gumpy and should be Chief by now...
