    Wow - bonkers to have a warship that might not be able to feed its crew should it be in a war situation when they can’t get the approved contractors onboard.

      I was listening to a podcast the other day and they had some top Army PR people on, and they made it sound like this isn’t the only example.

      The sliver of hope is that they were openly talking bad about the specific contractors that operate like this, and we’re finding new companies to work with that don’t require such stupid procedures.
