For Soldiers at Fort Carson, Food Is Scarce

Dining facilities -- critical for sustaining the health and readiness of troops -- are reportedly offering fewer options, with some meals falling short of basic nutritional standards. Earlier this month, the issue was exemplified by a meal in which soldiers were served a single piece of toast and a handful of lima beans for dinner, according to one soldier stationed there who shared imagery of the meal. Even getting access to those limited rations can be hard, given confusing dining hall schedules and seemingly random closures that make it difficult for many to access hot meals.

While the quality of the food sometimes left a little to be desired, there was never a shortage when I was in the army. I was on separate rations, but I could hit the chow line as many times as I was willing to pay.
