(WXYZ) — There's a disturbing problem facing Michigan National Guard troops guarding the U.S. Capitol – their food.
UPDATE: Sen. Peters calls on National Guard to terminate food contract, provide per diem for MI soldiers
A whistleblower is telling 7 Action News 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 7 Action News is protecting, 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.”
This food must be either from some "fly by night" catering business or a food service company that hates the military. I suspect that this may be due to socialist democrat liberal "activists" working at the food service.
Quote:The National Guard released the below statement in response to the allegations.
The Michigan National Guard finds the reports of undercooked and poorly prepared food provided to our service members in Washington, D.C. very concerning. The firsthand accounts and pictures of undercooked food being served clearly shows that what is being given to Michigan’s service members is unacceptable. As soon as the first reports were received, Governor Gretchen Whitmer called Acting Secretary of the Army John E. Whitley to communicate Michigan’s concerns. Other Michigan senior leaders also engaged at the highest levels of the federal government to inform those in charge and to ensure that they knew of our displeasure with the conditions. Every assurance was given that the issue would be addressed and corrected.

At least GOVERNOR WITCHMORE-BITCHMORE was concerned enough to ask questions and say this was unacceptable.

One question I do have is . . . If this were intentional sabotage by the left, why give food poisoning and adulterated food to the Guard if they are there to protect the usurpers and the Commander and Thief? It seems like the liberal useful idiots have gotten out of their cages and are randomly attacking anyone and anything now.

The Left always eats its self. In Stalin's time if you did your job well and supported the party you were seen as a danger and "dealt" with. Te better you do your job the greater danger you are

Was it just the NG from MI being served this disgusting food? If so, there needs to be an investigation.
Washington DC does not respect our military anyway. If I were a serviceman/woman stationed there, I would feel like I was in enemy territory from the start. First, they were made to sleep on the parking lot ground in the freezing cold.
Now, they'll be afraid to eat!
It's time for the states to call their boys home.

Well, Obummer may have given the order to thin out the military again. Seems Trump may have built it up too much for his liking. Biden/Harris do not want a strong military. We might win the war when China comes in if it's not dwindled down some.

It didn't say in the article, but I gather that the MI-NG contracted a local food service for their meals. It is likely that the other state NGs used other food sources. It's not like they all got food though the same service, although they may have. If so you are correct, there needs to be an investigation, otherwise this may come under local health codes.

They should have Army dining facility employees cooking food procured by Army personnel qualified to do so.
