Former Blue Falcon here. Infantry. You guys (food services) work your butts off and I was always grateful for your work and great chow. We spent most of our time on C Rats then MREs and a hot meal was pure luxury. You cant beat an Army breakfast and man, on Thanksgiving and Christmas, that knocked the ball out of the park. Good to see the professionalism still living on.
I was in the US Army 1974-1977. I was stationed in Harvey Barracks, Kitzingen, Germany. I was HHC, 2nd Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division. The chow I had in the Army was great. The NCOIC of our mess hall was a great American SFC. He was the best and ran his mess hall with precision. He kept his line cooks and EM assigned to him happy and his food was the best. His uniform was squared away daily, and so was his peoples' uniforms perfect. He was truly a class act. He would say when we showed up at 6 am at the mess hall, 'where are you going to get great food like this in the world?'. He was right. He would say, you better reenlist soldier. The best chow I had in the ARMY was at this great mess sarge's mess hall Harvey Barracks, Kitzingen, Germany. What a great man and great food under his charge. I am almost 70, so he is probably gone by now, he was probably 15-20 years older than I. People just do not realize how impactful they can be on others. This man I am referring to was not only a great American serviceman, but he was a real leader.
OMGGGGGG MY DAD WAS IN FORT BRAGG. He was a Cook… I’m crying😢😢.. When my Mom was Pregnant with me, She lived in Fort Bragg, went back to Bklyn NY to have me. THEN Straight back to live with My Dad at FORT BRAGG 🇺🇸🇺🇸👏👏❤️❤️THANK YOU DAD, I LOVE YOU
Props to y'all. I was Food Service Supervisor for Mt. Home AFB. Always appreciated it when the troops would give us a good critique. Made more beef gravy than I could ever count.
LOL, people make fun of beef gravy, but I thought it was great and still do. Salute for what you did. People sometimes think its boastful, but I was Airborne Infantry and we basically maybe got one ration a day and man, to come in and get a huge meal like you guys probably got up at 0300 or something to spoil us with, really humbles me and thank you for it. I am actually learning to cook now and not great at it, but getting better and enjoy it. I can imagine for guys like you, it was just hard work.
What is 13B? and Salute from former 82nd and smaller units. I was an 11B and got to go to Sapper School (12B school), but I do not know 13B? Regardless, my best and any Screamin Eagle earns a beer on me!
@@jackwalker9492 They don't call us The King of Battle for nothing. Can you imagine a battalion time on target fire mission. 18 155mm rounds impacting. It's quit the show! But ya'll got to play with some fun stuff too!
I felt such pride and gratitude watching this. God bless the chefs, crew, and staff that keeps it all going. God bless and protect our soldiers always.
An incredible logistical challenge. Glad to see that some of our taxes are allocated for feeding the men and women who have to be in peak physical condition. I was salivating, and having read the comments of various military personnel, it looks like all the chefs’ hard work really hit home. I watch Chopped, Armed Forces edition. The quality of the food prepared was as good as any high end restaurant, and no screaming, yelling, or bad behaviour that’s prevalent in civilian restaurants. Kudos. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Dang. That pork Roulade looks delicious !! All the food looks like high restaurant quality. Thanks for taking care of our service men and women (of which all of you are very appreciated army warriors as well).
great to see the military spirit in the crowded and busy chow halls of the army and how they cater to the masses of soldiers waiting for orders of chipped beef on biscuits or toast. After spending 38 years in the Navy working in the galleys of Nimitz Class aircraft carriers was a well-oiled machine run by non-coms.
My father served there. It’s where he learned to make SOS. I grew up on SOS. Then I learned how to make sausage gravy and biscuits. Didn’t look back until my youngest nephew asked me if I remembered my father’s recipe. I found myself making it again, 40ish years later, every now and then that is. Maybe once a year or so.
83-86 3/4 ada back then 82nd signal had the best mess hall but the leg artillery was very close and if you went to the mess on pope DAMN those air force guy had it made!
...chow hall is sure different than I remember in the early 80's...chow hall opened at about 6am and we had first formation and PT at 6am...after PT, you had to prep for barracks inspection and eat before 8am...you can guess what you didn't have time to do..chow hall closed at 8am...
Glen, thanks for teaching me what "Swissing" the steak means. My grandma made Swiss Steak but i could never figure out why that was from Switzerland. And "Spanish" means tomatoes. Thank you so much.
My dad was 101st Airborne during the Vietnam War. I wasn't very old when he left, when he came home he was never quite the same person. Saddly he passed away in 2018
I love this video. They serve my Army well. Keeping our men and women in uniform fed with delicious and healthy food is essential to good moral and an armed force ready to take on and conquer any challenge. God bless them all.
LOL! Fayettenam! Was it Hayes street? I was only in the 82nd like a year straight out of Basic/AIT/Jump school when about 3,000 of us were levied to Europe. Germany was nice, but a horrible unit and I went kicking and screaming as my unit in Division was very good. LOL, I know more about Area J than off post and nice pic Ben.

@@divemasterben I went to a GREAT Airborne (Infantry) unit in Panama and we never had time off and it was a different time, but when we got time off, we SCUBAd! Portobello, Panama. (I obviously see you screen name). I did a long time with too much trigger time than should be expected honestly. Being outdoors, I still love and as an 11B, was perfect, but man, the jungle was hard. I am an amatuer with diving, but its like being an astronaut and an incredible world. I know this sounds nuts, but check out my old unit video link. Nobody believes it, but we had Caiman (small alligators)s mascont and they used to parachute with us (picture in video). Do you give dive classes? I am in Bogota, but travel a lot and have a great buddy who dives a little, but we are rank and file amatuers who need adult supervision lol!

Nobody believes that, but check the video! Take care THK
I have to say that while were out there in the field training or in the classroom the food service workers are the BACKBONE of the Army as they bust their 6 to make sure were fed and taken care of while they work 12 to 14 hour days sometimes!
Back in the 60's and 70's each company in the 82 had its own dining and food services staff. Maybe once a week we would get hamburger and cream sauce (SOS). I would love to go back to the Division and see how it has changed! Back in my day, the saying in the Division was "All the Way".
the Army lost a lot of personality when they eliminated company mess halls and turned the eating arrangement for the Troops in a herd dining experience ... too bad
Back when I was in the army (1988-1992), this would have been an Air Force dining facility. We ate good but not anything like this! Oh, and by the way, supply issues? Not in my day!
My husband was in the ARMY back in the 1950’s, he gained 50 lbs, he was from Hungary and the milk was his favorite he said, looks like it all was, hehe
Damn! Making gravy from real meat, butter, flour. I hadn’t realized it wasn’t just hot water and a flavor packet type of thing. If they’re using real, not packaged eggs too I’m just so happy. Those soldiers deserve a good breakfast. ❤
Cream of Ground Beef? Where I come from that is sausage gravy over biscuits. BTW, those biscuits are some of the best looking biscuits I have ever laid eyes on.
I could solve one of the issues for the cafeteria staff. If that beef gravy is so popular...why are you all putting it in small pans. You should be using the soup kettle inserts. That way you wouldn't run out so fast and it can stay hot. It's all about preparation. If that mess hall been around so long, there should be info helping to plan meals based on personnel on base.
You can't put SOS in deep pans because ALL the meat will of course sink and you have to have someone constantly stirring it to keep the proper density at each serving.

What is the cost to a member to eat at these halls? I saw them lined up at some kind of till arrangement. Thank you you to all that served and are serving, and, Lest We Forget!
@@victorlewis4915 It is FREE, E1's to E4's are issued meal cards for accountability and it helps the mess hall keep accurate counts on how many meals/people were actually served. It also prevents someone from eating twice and scamming the system. If you are a married service member and live off base the government gives you a basic allowance for meals and you are required to pay for it. It's been years since I served active duty, they might have everyone on a card now to reduce the amount of cash sitting around and to eliminate the chance of theft
Married personnel pay for the food between $3-5. Single soldiers are given pay to eat in the chow hall and it then deducted out of that same paycheck, whether the soldier goes to the dining facility all the time, or very little.
Golden Point - Wherever food us served, the people eating have to be seated and served food at the correct temperature and all at Emmy's Expense ( IMF ) ( El )
In this video he talks about FORT BRAGG,in NORTH CAROLINA the 82ND,Airborne Division, but I thought that the 82nd was based at FORT CAMPBELL,but I thought that the 101 Airborne Division was stationed at FORT Bragg,in North Carolina, or did the DEPT OF THE ARMY, AND THE PENTAGON combine both divisions?is my question, because my 2nd duty station was at FORT GORDON, in AUGUSTA GEORGIA, and I was assigned to the 67TH SIGNAL BATTALION, CHARLIE COMPANY, but I worked in BATTALION mess hall, feeding thousands of troops, sometimes we had to go to the field in fatigues,full gear,lock and load,M-16 all.
I call BS. I have never been near Fort Bragg or Fort Campbell, but every soldier who completed basic knows where the 82nd and 101st are located. Guess you attended Basic at the Field of Dreams.
I enlisted in the Army for 6 years at age 17 in 1987. My mother refused to sign the paperwork (as I was a minor) and told me to go to the Air Force recruiter. Best advice mom gave me! I signed a four year contract with the USAF with mom's signature and got me out of the USA's contract. Boy, was that USA recruiter pissed! He threatened me with jail, dishonorable discharge and captive punishment (whatever that is). I went on to have a very successful career with the USAF and retired after 26 years. I've deployed to many forward operating bases (FOBS) and found that the Army lacks common sense and rules by bullying, violence and outright insubordination. However, most of my meals were from KBR, not the USA so I can't speak to the quality of their work. Mom made the right decision for me.

He also followed us to Clark in the PHILIPPINES and later edwards in California. So we had the same guy Supervis ing our meals ever since leaving tech school. Capt Dean was a great guy.
Golden Point - All Kitchens are to cook food using quality ingredients especially yelliw mozerrala cheese and all of the above is at Emmy's Expense ( IMF ) ( El )
What is the cost to a member to eat at these halls? I saw them lined up at some kind of till arrangement. Thank you you to all that served and are serving, and, Lest We Forget!
Shouldn't have to pay for Jack. Our military gets screwed in the beginning and at the end 😕
I thought the food was free!!!
@@victorlewis4915 It is FREE, E1's to E4's are issued meal cards for accountability and it helps the mess hall keep accurate counts on how many meals/people were actually served. It also prevents someone from eating twice and scamming the system. If you are a married service member and live off base the government gives you a basic allowance for meals and you are required to pay for it. It's been years since I served active duty, they might have everyone on a card now to reduce the amount of cash sitting around and to eliminate the chance of theft
It is free
Married personnel pay for the food between $3-5. Single soldiers are given pay to eat in the chow hall and it then deducted out of that same paycheck, whether the soldier goes to the dining facility all the time, or very little.
Awesome Video!
God bless our military 🙏🏻🇺🇸❤️💯
My dad was a sfc mess Sargent at ft. Bragg also.......we ate good at home too.......I'm tryna tell you
LOL I never saw anything like that in the 1970's at Ft Lewis
Gotta feed them hard working military men and woman.
I thought it was biscuits and gravy, but it's creamed beef! Gonna have to try making it now.
Ground beef--not sausage gravy? Wow
fayetteville 🌟
Golden Point - Wherever food us served, the people eating have to be seated and served food at the correct temperature and all at Emmy's Expense ( IMF ) ( El )
You guys have soul food day? For lunch
DAD PASSED INTO GOD'S HANDS ON OCT 25TH, 2009. LOVE ALL OF YOU
I miss the creamed beef. If it was made by the recipe, it was excellent.
In this video he talks about FORT BRAGG,in NORTH CAROLINA the 82ND,Airborne Division, but I thought that the 82nd was based at FORT CAMPBELL,but I thought that the 101 Airborne Division was stationed at FORT Bragg,in North Carolina, or did the DEPT OF THE ARMY, AND THE PENTAGON combine both divisions?is my question, because my 2nd duty station was at FORT GORDON, in AUGUSTA GEORGIA, and I was assigned to the 67TH SIGNAL BATTALION, CHARLIE COMPANY, but I worked in BATTALION mess hall, feeding thousands of troops, sometimes we had to go to the field in fatigues,full gear,lock and load,M-16 all.
You thought wrong! Ass backwards. Former 82nd here
I call BS. I have never been near Fort Bragg or Fort Campbell, but every soldier who completed basic knows where the 82nd and 101st are located. Guess you attended Basic at the Field of Dreams.
I see the soldiers appear to pay first, yes? How much does it cost?
I enlisted in the Army for 6 years at age 17 in 1987. My mother refused to sign the paperwork (as I was a minor) and told me to go to the Air Force recruiter. Best advice mom gave me! I signed a four year contract with the USAF with mom's signature and got me out of the USA's contract. Boy, was that USA recruiter pissed! He threatened me with jail, dishonorable discharge and captive punishment (whatever that is). I went on to have a very successful career with the USAF and retired after 26 years. I've deployed to many forward operating bases (FOBS) and found that the Army lacks common sense and rules by bullying, violence and outright insubordination. However, most of my meals were from KBR, not the USA so I can't speak to the quality of their work.
Mom made the right decision for me.
Until you take the oath of office that Army recruiter couldn't do sh*t! But, you probably know that now.
An army marches on its stomach
Including any non-military employees or workers (title 5) too i imagine.
