In the field, officers eat the same
food as the men. If they want to pur-
chase some extra dainties that is their
affair. Any man can do the same. The
government issues sugar for the coffee,
and jam or preserves or dried fruit. At
mess time. the men, each carrying his
kit, line up in front of the kitchen. As
the line passes along, the sergeant
dishes up the stew and beans or other
vegetables, one Of the cooks doles out
the bread. another fills the coffee mugs
md the third Is sweltering over the
fire. After all the men have been
served, the sergeant fills the officers
tin dishes and carries them to where
they are waiting. That is all the extra
service they get. It is the same with
the marines. Il Is n wise government
regulation. The officer knows what
food tho men are getting, for he has
the same.
