    I don’t know where this is from but somehow I feel like this is very rich. I’d like to see someone do better.

      Yeah, we’re talking about the army that rolls out chain stores in warzones as SOP. Apparently it’s pretty haphazard from he inside too, but nobody else can remotely pull that off.

          I don’t know about gift shops, but definitely fast food and probably clothes too.

          Yep, there’s a guy buying shoes in one of the Wikipedia article’s pictures. Appliances and electronics too. Anything a soldier could reasonably want to buy, although apparently they have their own brand for auto sales, as opposed to a chain.

          Navy SEALs eating government-supplied but non-free Big Macs as bullets whistle overhead is just the most aggressively American. I also get a kick out of soda fountains on submarines, although it makes total sense from an engineering perspective.

          So, what’s the MOS code for Hooters specialist?
