Very different from how enlisted sailors are usually fed, and an indicator that the US is likely unable to adequately support any kind of war
Imagine spending trillions on your war machine for decades and when you actually go to war the basics like food logistics aren’t there. That’s just sad…

most of the defense budget goes to contractors, not surprising
I am kind of baffled by the absence of food in the US military, especially the US Navy. That’s like the third item on the logistics checklist with ammunition and fuel being first and second.

Gotta keep your human meat shie-I MEAN, soldiers, malnourished and begging for scraps to stave off a radical revolution!
Wait, did I say “stave off”? I meant “encourage”.
