19. I was in a 101st Airborne Division mess hall when division introduced liver and onions

This was on a deployment to Fort Drum several years before they put 10th Mountain up there. Colonel McGuinness, my battalion commander, hand-wrote on the deployment packing list "$20 bill." Somehow he knew about the Fort Drum base regulation that all visiting units will be served one meal of liver and onions and didn't want us to starve. NO ONE ate it.

RFK Jr.'s health food in the mess hall campaign will probably result in the chow halls closing due to lack of interest.
