The Chow

So readers i am now in Afghanistan i haven't really been here long enough to form a legitimate opinion of the place but i have been here long enough to eat my fair amount of food. As i've been here i have been to a few military bases which seem to get smaller and smaller as i go so in turn the chow halls do the same. The first one i was at (camp leatherneck) you had to take taxi's to get to the food and let me tell you it was worth it because the food there was better than food back in the states. The next base although smaller the chow there was just as good as the food on leatherneck and in walking distance. Now the base i'm at the chow hall isn't a hall at all it is just a tent but it's right across from my tent so it's easily accessible and the food there is fine and the drinks are cold. I can only imagine what the chow hall/tent at the next place i go will be like i may even have to share a tent with it. So far as you can see all my time here has consisted of is chow and sleep and so far that's all i have to write about but i'm not complaining.
