Good morning Troops!
FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT
Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allies military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.
The problem of feeding an armed force engaged in combat, whether in alien or in home areas, has occupied the attention of military leaders since the beginning of organized warfare. Leaders learned that the ability of men to fight was related to the way they were fed and that the answer to the feeding problem often determined victory or defeat. The axiom that an army travels on its stomach is as good today as it has ever been, only now that classical stomach rides in airplanes, ships, tanks, submarines, and jeeps in every terrain and climate of the world. But there is no question that the problems of the army stomach have entered the age of specialization. This fact is increasingly evident as the story of army subsistence unfolds from the early simplicity to the contemporary complexity of the military feeding program.
The earliest rations of the United States Army were all-inclusive in purpose. For more than a century after 1776, the basis of all troop feeding--for soldiers in camp, on the march, in action, or just surviving--was the simple fare of meat and bread, and sometimes vegetables, known as the garrison ration. From the Revolutionary War to World War I, the garrison ration served the unit, the small group, and the individual. Moreover, it was intended to serve them in organized messes, in isolated groups, and in individual situations of combat and survival.

Good morning Troops, FRiends, and fellow canteeners!
I've got a plate full today so I won't be in much but I sure hope everyone has a GRAND day!
Interesting Thread Soaring Feather - Thanks!
The worse food I ever had was while stationed at Eglin. The chow hall for the 33rd TFW was "contracted" out. We believed that it would sustain life, but we are not sure. Fortunately getting slopped there was seldom necessary.
The finest I ever had was while TDY to Key West Naval Station. The food there would rival any upper class restaurant around. They had REAL MILITARY chefs there.
