"Aren't facts terrific instead of just writing a single misleading sentence"
As you did here:
"You can eat just so many lobster tails..."
AND here:
"Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to call Pentagon Pete and ask him for one of those sushi prep tables he bought with our tax dollars."
Across branches and generations, service members have circulated a widely recognized belief: when steak and lobster appear in the dining facility, something significant may be coming. Often described as a “surf and turf” meal, the combination has become embedded in military culture as a symbolic precursor to deployments, combat operations, or extended missions.

It's ok to be disapproving of certain government actions and decisions, but perhaps you could be a little more respectful about traditions and sacrifices that you perhaps have no knowledge of.
