We had a light colonel one time that was death on the "unauthorized gear that the damn tankers drag along with them."
One FTX he and his driver were late coming back into the encampment, and all they had to eat was a couple of cans of C-rat crackers.
Then they pulled into my platoon's position.
And them damn tankers had a couple of grills set up and were enjoying steaks...
"Pull on up colonel! You like your meat burnt or bloody?"
