I thought sailors always had a top galley chef and good food as a way to keep morale up on board
Food in the Navy is generally mid to bad. I just asked my deployed friend what he thought of it and he was less than impressed. That being said, Submarine crews generally get better food because they literally have nothing else.
They all deserve unflavored oatmeal for every meal.
I would have loved if unflavored oatmeal were an option at every meal! I could have saved a fortune on cup noodles and instant mac&cheese!
They make you pay for your food? What a shit military.
Nah. I stocked up before deployments and stashed it all under the deck plates of my workspace for days when the food from the galley was particularly inedible. But the ship store did have such such items for purchase, and those items certainly sold!
You sound like a spiteful person. Remind me not to serve with you
You’re a baby killer
I mean, given the current task force directive is “Murder innocent people to distract the world from our leader’s pedophilia”, I do express some disappointment in any active duty members that don’t refuse orders.
Refusing orders is a real fast way to prison or execution. I get your point, but the military is setup to make challenging orders as risky as possible.
Prison or execution by who?
The US government. If a member of the military disobeys a direct order they get court marshaled. The rules there are different than the typical US court system and way more harsh in a lot of cases.

The US government is not a person. It’s a lot of people who individually choose to follow the rules. One of those rules is: Congress decides wars. You might have missed the point behind my question.

If there is one thing anyone should have learned about 2025, it’s that in the United States, there are never any real consequences for breaking the rules. Each of us decides which ones are real and which to follow.

They sure don’t put Eddie Slovik in our textbooks I’ll tell ya.
