Fort Carson Making Changes to Dining After Soldiers Voiced Complaints

It's An Entirely Different Military Than It Was When Many Of Us Served,
And I'm Glad I Served Then And Not Now. I Didn't Realize They Have So Many Choices,
We Were Just Told What To Do And Did It, LOL- Well Kiss My Azz, It's Like The Girl Scouts.

MAJ Byron Oyler As an officer hen on active duty I ate at the chow hall once or twice a week. At GTMO, I ate t
there every meal.. I'd catch a breakfast or a lunch, and a dinner. Mainly, I did it to be seen by my folks.

When I was a SSG, I ate with my guys a couple of times a week just so I knew how the chow was. Our cooks were pretty good and I can only remember one or twobad meals from them.

Absolutely Best Meals I Ever Had, Whether In Or Out Of The Military Service, Was In Our "Restaurant" At Osan AFB, South Korea. We Had No Military Staff Working In The Kitchens. What We DID Have However, Were Hired Korean Chefs Whom Prepared Every Meal With Skills Most Of Us Have Never Known, And Above The Double Entrance Doors
Was A Large Half Moon Sign Which Stated ~~ And I SWEAR This To Be True ~~
~~~ "Recommended By Duncan Heinz" ~~~ YES, It Was Like A 4 Star Restaurant.

When I was in the mess hall at Ft. Jackson was the finest we had. The BC ate there every Friday night and they always served surf and turf.
My time at Ft. Carson (two tours there) we had good food and plenty of it.

You would think, right?

But Then Again ~ Those Are 3 Meals.
Just To Darned Confusing ~They Probably Just
Can't Figure Out Which One To Choose. ~

A1C Medrick "Rick" DeVaney As long as there are 3 meals available there is no belly aching … if a soldier can’t feed himself or herself they can go hungry but no whining!

If I Properly Recall, During The Years I Served, 1961 -1965, The How Halls Were Open 24/7 And We Ate What-Ever They Were Serving. There Were Times When We Worked Various Shifts, Like During The Cuban Crisis; So We Might Be Having Breakfast At 4:00 PM And Lunch At 6:00 AM And Dinners Might Be Served At Noon. But Any Way We Looked At It, "We Did Have 3 Meals Every Day" And I Don't Recall Anyone Bitching About It. ~ We Were Serving In The Military, Not Guests At The Hilton ~
Just A Little "P.S." ~ During My Service Years We Had The Cuban Crisis, Cold War With Russia, Vietnam Was Running At Full Speed & The Assassination Of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. ~ I Was Living History, Not Reading About It.~ A Great Time To Have Been Alive And Experiencing Life.
