What an epic scumbag. There’s two things you don’t mess with in the military: pay and chow. Let them eat MRE’s huh NoBama?
Frontpage – The Army has stopped serving cooked breakfasts to some of the U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan as part of its drawdown, a move that prompted troops to write home asking their families and friends to send care packages with cereal, breakfast bars and other foods.
The Army told the Washington Guardian the current cutbacks began Jan. 1, and affect about 2,700 soldiers deployed in forward operating bases in more remote areas of Afghanistan.
The Washington Guardian reported earlier this month that the current budget crisis in Congress prompted Deputy Defense Secretary Ashton Carter to write a memo order preparations for sweeping budget cuts across all military programs to begin as early as next month.
Officials stressed other comforts at the forward operating bases may also soon be reduced, such as laundry and recreation, as officials look for other ways to reduce the American footprint in advance of departing the country.
They said the meal cutbacks are currently affecting forward operating bases in more remote areas of Afghanistan and not affecting the main American bases in Kabul and Kandahar.

How about let’s see if Congress will cut all federal Workers pay by 15% including the President and Vice President. They can follow up by cutting their pay by 50% or more for all the good they are doing about the fiscal crisis.
Thats where we should start… this makes me sick to my stomache… i wouldnt be surprised if, in the near, there isnt a full military revolt
How about we just serve him carrot sticks and celery 3 times a day>
thats way too much…
