Fucker is a culinary wiz....
The food was a very pleasant surprise when I was inducted into the army. Those cooks were very well trained and produced excellent meals from top quality ingredients.
I have never eaten better.
I had both good and bad.
Bad - small boat station in Michigan with a cook with a bad attitude and worse personal hygene. Goofy fuck put bay leaves in everything.
Good - Kodiak AK - a large galley run by a Phillipino Senior Chief and a good crew. High quality eats. We could bring in civilian frends for all you could eat breakfast for $1.85.
Best - Pt Reyes Ca. 1 good cook - 1 phenominal one (SS2) running it. We were outside the normal procurement area and the SS2 worked out deals with local suppliers. We got the best grass fed Angus beef and fresh ( caught that morning) seafood. I gained over 5 kilos stationed there....
