They could go back to including a mini pack of 3 cigarettes instead of two pieces of fuckin chewing gum. Supposedly in the field, people actively trying to kill you, and some health nazi from the chairborne division is "concerned" about you smoking. It's not even good gum.

The reason they don't do this is because even in particularly low visibility situations, enemy marksmen and snipers can easily pick out cigarette smoke or glowing cigarette cinders, which will instantly make you a target to those people actively triyng to kill you. This is why every soldier and their brother prefers smokeless tobacco.

That being said, they should totally include a little mini can of dip instead of chewing gum in those MREs. Even if you dont smoke, you will soon finding your buddies lining up to suck your dick for that little trial-size pack.

Here in the UK we still have a lingering superstition that it's bad luck to light three or more cigarettes with the same match.

carry around ziplocs of spices like oregano basil pepper and garlic powder(i usually do them premixed for certain meals). bottle of tobasco helps as well.

you WILL have to mix extra water in with in the influx of spices, as dried spices tend to dehydrate the shit out of stuff and those mres arent made to take in dried spices.

Same tired old shit, just a different ignorant prick and a different day. Got news for you asshole . This isn't. 1970, or even 1990. Many, trending toward most senior NCO's have a BS or BA, and not in art history or underwater basket weaving either. STEM. It's up or out, and if you expect to make 0-4, you better have a masters degree. Costa Rica is arguably a first world nation, protected by allies and treaties, and doesn't need a large standing military.. Many want and expect "lions to lay down with lambs." That's OK as long as you add fresh lambs periodically. If by welfare queens you mean so underpaid many with familes qualify for "food stamps" or ebt, your correct..

the only person I know who joined the army was unemployed for 8 years after he got out. and he had a STEM degree. seems no one wants to be around trigger-happy people with possible PTSD and extensive weapons training. we tried to warn him but hey. he wanted to have an adventure.

luckily he's finally got something, now that we're in dot com bubble 2.0 and big tech companies will hire anyone with a pulse, but meanwhile everyone else in his peer group from high school has come out ahead of him in terms of life. including his best friend who was a "liberal arts" major and is now a diplomat.

welcome to how opinions are formed, buddy. protip: this is how the civilian world sees you. get out of Fort Benning or wherever it is you hang out and talk to normal people, you'll see how it is. in the real world, ex-military are viewed with a mixture of pity and suspicion, travel isn't associated with machine-gunning a station wagon full of brown people, and education is expected of any successful person, rather than being a special treat you can only get if you blow up mud huts first
