Some people in this country are raising a ruckus over money spent by Hegseth-to provide our soldiers with a meal of Lobster and steaks. Noone deserves a special meal more than the men and women who protect our country from harm.
Thank you to all that are serving and those that have served in the past.
May you enjoy your meal. And again-Thank You for serving your country.

Tom

Amen,

Thank you and enjoy.

Yeah but Somali got more and it was sent to that country and same people never said a word

Please don't turn this into a political post--it is a thank you post,
Tom

Agree 100%. Tom

Used to get surf and turf every Friday night when I was deployed. That was kinda nice , but the wings at Camp Leatherneck were awesome !

If our service personnel got Beluga caviar and fois gras , I would be down with it. Except give them a real nice high end scotch to wash it down with it.



They totally deserve it. Period

Yep agree with bogmaster

Well said bogmaster. Thank you.
Semper Fi.

Right on!

Agree they deserve it quite often.

Probably doesn’t cost much more than MRE’s. Not cheap to make those.

The people raising a ruckus are probably the same ones that are fine with snap cards being used for chips and Coca-Cola. lol.

I heard that and thought it was great. Thanks to all serving from Kansas

L would bet the free meals and daily stuff congress gets DAILY is dwarfed in comparison.

Steak and lobster on base usually means one thing...

Also if they saw mil spec steak and lobster... unless it's airforce it's not slme 5 star meal lol

God bless them and eat hearty folks!!!

Let them enjoy their steak and lobster! Thanks to all who serve or have served!!!

When in the Coast Guard at a small shore station, we could not accept or purchase local seafood because it was not USDA inspected. Imagine that. This was around 1980 or a little before.

100%

They ALL deserve it and more. 100 percent behind that meal. God Bless them all.

Those Navy folks have some mighty tasty chow also.

x2, Tom

ok the troops earned their $7M in lobster and 15 M in steaks.

Care to explain this?

High-end non-food items were also on the list, including:

$98,329 Steinway & Sons grand piano for an Air Force residence

$225 million in furniture, featuring individual chairs costing nearly $1,900

$12,540 for fruit basket stands

$5.3 million on Apple devices

I'd bet there ain't many of those that are complaining about our troops getting a good meal that would have guts enough to say anything to our troops' faces.

Or…wouldn't be willing (let alone brave enough) to trade places with them either!

Don't leave us hanging Wolfie! What does it mean?

Usually means some kinda bad news is ok the way most commonly a deployment to a " fun" place

Let's talk about these things called " government contracts" lol

In cooner--this post was meant to thank those protecting us. I asked that politics not be brought into this. For that reason--beware of what you post on here.

Tom

Tom, I completely agree with you. I have NO problem with my tax dollars being spent to provide those protecting our freedom and making sacrifices with a GOOD meal. After all, much more of my tax dollars are being spent on those that do nothing for the betterment of this country and are only a drain on our social programs. Hopefully they were provided some FINE cocktails to go along with their meal too. I tip my hat to anyone that wears or has worn a US uniform.

Thanka Wolfie. I can't believe I had never heard that before.

Like the old saying either you stand behind and support our troops or you can feel free to stand in front of them !

Enjoy and thank you one and all for keeping us out of harms way !

Anyone who attacks the troops is a low life. I however have no problem at all with anyone criticizing the politicians and their cronies calling the shots.

Should be only the best for those men and women who are putting their lives on the line in harm's way. May God bless you all and keep you safe!

yup

It called the use it or loose it government $$$ and goes on every year for last 50 years.
