I’d prefer making my own food anyway.
When I worked at the Eglin AFB mess hall one summer 30-some years ago most of the staff were contracted. Only a handful of uniformed staff involved. My summer job was filling in for the contracted staff as they were taking their vacations.
What, they can’t assign some soldiers to KP?
What happens when our garbage establishment institutes a military draft but then they do not draft the illegal aliens in our country? That would be a huge issue with Americans because illegal immigrants already have many more privileges than we do as citizens with none of the Goddamned obligations. I remember how after the 9/11 attack that the southern border flow reversed with a lot of illegal alien men running for Mexico. If I was young and had been drafted but the military was not drafting illegal aliens I would NOT show up.
How about the Colonel tells the Captain who tells the First Sergeant to pick a couple of Privates to go work in the mess hall? Ever heard of that?
Yep, but I’ll bet they have plenty of psychological mentors and counselors encouraging gender translation.
The DoD is led by an Affirmative Action General (Ret).
If Donald Trump ever gets back into the Whitehouse, he is going to have to do a serious culling of Obama generals and admirals! Many of the O-6s would probably have to be culled as well. The rot goes deep.

I’m pretty sure I read recently that the perverts the military has been recruiting are exempt from many physical requirements and will be shielded from actual combat.
back in my day ( a LONG time ago) this would be grounds to get the Base Commander fired. In today's military, who knows?
Concur.
It does reflect piss poor planning and total disregard for the grunts from the highest levels.
When I was at the Presidio of Monterey many years ago, while in language school, we had the best chow ever. The army cooks there kicked ass in quality of the meals.
Back at the air force bases, we were stuck with contractors supplying the chow and it was always that damned turkey roll six times a week. Midnight chow was the only real food that was good there, and the only food we had cooked by military cooks.
+1
It would offend the liberals, if we put armed forces on the border. So will never happen.
Or to paraphrase what I’ve heard, we can protect the borders of Kuwait, South Korea, Ukraine, but not our own borders.
I can’t speak for other than Navy, however on Submarines, the Cook was very well respected and considered by the crew. They busted their butts to put good food on the plate, and got it done, and all of ‘em were volunteers.
I was thinking that a few weeks ago when watching a tour of the submarine USS Indiana on YouTube. They had two cooks on duty serving the guests. But everyone has to eat. Serving the mess has a long tradition in every navy, and those boys have to put up with the same hardships as the rest of the crew. Wear the dolphins proudly!

Where’s Pruitt when you need him...
"Considering"?
(Wouldn't this solve the problem almost immediately?)
Heh, in the USN they always served mid-rats for those who worked the 7 PM to 7 AM shift, and I felt like all I ate for about a year was breakfast food...scrambled eggs, bacon.
Well.
I guess that isn’t so bad after all.
