There's a disturbing problem facing Michigan National Guard troops guarding the U.S. Capitol – their food. A whistleblower said nearly 75 meals were thrown out Sunday after metal shavings were found, other meals showed up undercooked making soldiers sick. A staff sergeant with the Michigan National Guard, whose identity is being protected, says the problem is not isolated. “Yesterday, for instance, there were 74 different meals found with raw beef in them,” the sergeant said. "Just yesterday, the lunches were, soldiers had found metal shavings in their food.”

Shows how much the communists in charge think of the ones ordered to defend their miserable hides. They will remember this for the rest of their lives. Where are the governors?

Fort Myer is just across the river from DC and home to the 3rd infantry. They go out in the field and train on a fairly regular basis. They have field kitchens and the ability to cook for large numbers of troops. Why are the National Guard soldiers not being fed by the military instead of being subjected to this kind of abuse. If I was governor and my National Guard was experiencing this, I would call them home and tell Nancy Pelosi to go to a very hot place.

This had to be deliberate. How could metal shaving be in their food. Under cooked with metal shavings. Who ever prepared these meals need jail time.

The Commucrats have found a sure-fire way of alienating the troops they expect to protect them...screw around with their food. THAT is a nearly unpardonable sin. You just keep it up, Comms; they'll turn on you all like Caligula's Praetorian Guard.

#5, why do common sense logistics when you can contract out to your buddy for substandard meals? Gen. Milley, this must be in the constitution, right?

Well, what did they expect? After all, they're merely the Democrats' helpers.

The sad news is that Governor Whitmer WILL NOT be calling you back to Michigan.....
Time to close Fort Pelosi anyway, it has more than served its purpose (what WAS the purpose?)

Metal shavings? Sounds like it’s sabotage. And we all know that the left hates the military.

Governors and State Adjutants General need to recall their troops now. They have been treated like dirt for weeks now and crickets. To see soldiers treated like this makes my blood boil. We all know how the Left feels about the military yet we keep bending over and taking it. At least we once had a President that loved our military

Some day Grandpa , Grandma and Undecided will be sitting around the fireplace (probably no electric, gas or coal heat), telling the grand kids, girls, boys and undecideds, about their adventures at Fort Pelosi.

This is infuriating. I would bet hard money that the supplier of these meals is a Democrat donor.

This is the same as the police in my city finding that the Dairy Queen employee spit in their blizzard. Some kitchen workers hate any one with authority who carries a gun, and think this is hilarious.
This is an excellent opportunity for Michigan to bring their men home.
This is an excellent opportunity to change to a new food vendor who needs the work desperately.

Time to institute the traditional practice of "foraging." They are nothing but Pelosi's Pawn Patrol. What contempt.

If they treat those guarding their lives this bad, they must really really hate the rest of US. Dang!

No other state should agree to send their NG Troops to D.C. There is no good reason for them to be out in the weather, living in Parking garages and eating nasty food just to keep Nancy happy!

Pelosi's palace guard, Capitol Police or keystone cops, need to step up and do their jobs.
This is not the National Guard's job. If it was, they would have brought their own equipment,
including cooking facilities. The strength of the guard is that they are trained, have a command structure,
and with their equipment are self supported.

I think the Dems are trying to force them into "disobedient" behavior. The Dems have been trying to prove that they can't trust the Police or military. They're hoping someone breaks so they can actually punish someone and have an excuse to remove soldiers and the commanders they don't trust.

I'm not shocked. Why, because there are many sick people out there who hate our police and hate our military. From the article you can see this is not an isolated incident. There are people out there who are complete scum. They know where the food came from and the problem should be corrected immediately. Either fix it or sent the National Guard back to their states. Got it.

So, a dozen FBI agents can investigate a garage pull rope that someone thought looked like a noose, but nobody investigates who is poisoning our national guardsmen?
You don't get metal shavings in 75 meals by accident. In fact, how do you even get metal shavings in a kitchen at all, unless by intention?
Antifa/BLM behind this, no doubt

And where did the metal shavings come from? Oh, I get it. Whatever metal pieces fell to the ground whenever they were erecting the metal fences. After all, Congress wouldn't want anything to go to waste. /s

I suspect that some democrat contributor has the contract for supplying meals to the troops.

They HATE the military. Folks in those NG units need to be getting out of their NG commitment ASAP. Any sane governor needs to recall these troops.

#11 and others: right, metal shavings indicate *deliberate* intent to harm. Someone should be jailed.
Bring all of them home. Now!

If the Washington DeeCee Welfare Department treated the DinDoos this badly, there would be RIOTS!
I would wager the sub-par food is being supplied by a buddy of some Leftist 'Rat CongressCritter on a No-Bid Contract, and that the supplier is profiting Handsomely.
There IS a Cafeteria in the Capitol building, and there are a lot of restaurants in the area. Issue the troops some kind of per-diem allowance and let the troops eat where they want.
Also issue regular Government travel orders so they can sleep in one of the many local hotels.
