 I was stationed in Germany 68-69 we were fed c-rations in stew like mixture everything was dumped in a large pot. We were only to get this once a week, but the cook was selling our food and milk, and we get the stew twice a week. Once I figured the schedule out, I became a connoisseur of fine AF mess halls.

Questionnaire:

What would you do if you found a scorpion in your tent?

Army: I'd step on it.

Marine: I'd step on it and then eat it.

Air Force: I'd call the hotel desk and ask why there's a tent in my room.

The one good thing about the Space Force is, over time it, it will replace Air Force as the butt of every joke.

Sorry about the link
What kind of leadership do we have that doesn't properly see their men feed and housed. This is Army wide
So much for an Army moves on its stomach!

Reminds me of:

A sailor and a marine are both taking a leak in the head.
The marine gets done first and goes to the sink and begins to wash his hands.
The sailor gets done and heads straight for the door.
The marine says to him "in the corps they teach us to wash our hands after we use the head"
The sailor responds with "in the navy they teach us not to piss on our hands"
