Pentagon tells US soldiers to apply for welfare

Do you want to talk about military readiness?

The Biden administration has been neglecting the American military.  Simultaneously, Mr Biden strives to defend the Ukraine by sending them weapons removed from the American military inventory.  Mr Biden has not sought to replenish those inventories.  Weakened soldiers and fewer defense weapons demonstrates Mr Biden's intent to leave American open to foreign predators.

The Pentagon is recommending U.S. soldiers struggling with soaring food prices apply for welfare, in a move that underscores both low military pay and the economic headwinds facing the nation as a whole. The recommendation came last month from Sergeant Major of the Army Michael Grinston, and directs Army soldiers and their families to apply for food stamps through the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program known by the acronym SNAP (Daily Wire).

Food insecurity for troops is not a new problem, but the recent surge in inflation has put service members in an even tougher situation (Political Insider).
