If our guys and gals request some items that were missed, or that they might have to pay for themselves, well then, some of us are more than willing to help facilitate their requests.

I find it odd how accepting you and LB are about this. He says it's always been that way. You emphasize civilian willingness to help. I see a problem that can and should be fixed. Like in this day and age the Army can't hire a guy to be the Gold Bond guy and make sure that there are adequate supplies? To me that shows a lack of respect for the troops. Sure, you and I can compensate for that but at what cost? We know the military understands the concept of economy of scale. Why not apply that to Gold Bond powder? There's a lot of lost national productivity in this. Not to mention the unnecessary discomfort of the troops.
