I remember my cousin was in the military and I remember one thanksgiving he came home and said "This food is nothing like it is there" --- Or maybe he meant the other way round,I dunno.........
I think when he first joined,He didnt like it but had to stay 4 years.........

Re: Do You Have Family In The Military?
My 2 younger brothers and I did military service. I did 14 years, they did substantially less. The food in the messes depended on where you were, but it was always substantial and palatable.

Yes.
Me, my ex-brother-in-law, two of my nephews, and my dad (he was in WW2).

Apart from national service no, during the war they were in protected occupations.
