There was also some flapjaw that "the Marines only have enough MRE's for one meal a day." Last night CBS broadcast an interview with a Marine officer on the front. He remarked that 'it's been tough, not much sleep, lotsa movement, taking fire, and the men have only had TIME to eat about one meal/day. That's the source, and an obvious mis-understanding of the facts as reported.

Well Now....the spin on this will be that we are so short there with our amount of troops that we are over extending them and abusing them by only permitting them to eat one meal a day. Never fear...the media will figure out the correct spin on this one.
