The article states water bottles were astray on the ground/tent/living area.If Logpac cleans up, then my the military has changed. If logpac comes and picks-up the garbage, that is another thing. Does Logpac clean-up after soldiers or pick up the garbage as in a civilian dumster being emptied? It's like me hoping the garbage men come in my home and clean and get the garbage and I get in trouble for not bringing it to the curb.

The article also states that there are very few garbage cans.
The LTC in charge could help alieviate the problem by requesting MORE cans. (Probably a stretch in logic for the LTC, I know..)

Logpac comes and gets the bagged trash. But only if they're told to do so by the guy in charge. (At least, that's how they treated my unit.)

So now he's got few garbage cans (not enough for the volume of troops there.) and stuff is piling up.
He's gotta call in for more cans, as well as call Logpac to haul stuff away.
He's also gotta get the people on the detail to change the bags in the cans as aoften as possible. (I'm just citing the solutions for the evident problem the LTC has. If Logpac is operating as I saw them do, then the LTC has to make a call. If he didn't, then it's his problem.)
No, not like hoping teh garbage men come into your home.
More like hoping they pick the bags up off the curb, without paying the bill.
If Logpac doesn't get a call in, they don't haul the stuff away. (But they'll bring in supplies..)
If there are as the article states, few garbage cans, then there is a problem as well.
Where does the LTC expect the troops to put trash?
