Key thing in this article is that the US military is failing to feed naval crews adequately. Meals look like this now

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

    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.

    This also gives some credence to rumors the fire was deliberately started on Gerald due to moral issues.

        My friend in Greece sent me a couple pictures of Gerald asking if I knew which one it was. Took me a moment because I was shocked with how bad of a condition she is in, and this was before the fire! Everything about that ship screams fraud, waste ,and abuse of public trust.
