CoViD Food Crisis: LOCAL SCHOOLS GETTING FOOD FROM U.S. MILITARY, AND DEMAND IS UP!

U.S. Food Crisis, March 2019: “NOBODY HAS ANY MONEY”

U.S.

Local schools getting food from U.S. military, and demand is up!

24 February 2021 (10:52-UTC-07 Tango 06) 06 Esfand 1399/12 Rajab 1442/14 Geng-Yin 4719

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has many sub-programs for helping provide food for their National School Lunch Program.  One of those sub-programs is in coordination with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), it’s called the USDA DoD Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program (aka USDA DoD Fresh).

Even though it’s listed as a USDA program, it is actually operated by the DoD’s Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence supply chain.

This fiscal year, there is already a record $470-million in requests for food from USDA DoD Fresh, and in just one week of November a record 20-thousand-958 orders were shipped.  Last year, the requests for USDA-DoD supplied fresh veggies hit $371-million.  It’s all blamed on CoViD-19 overreactions by local and state governments, resulting in schools shutting down completely and food orders being canceled: “Then as they came back in March, April and May, we began to see where USDA DoD Fresh was meeting their needs because of the fact that [schools] could get weekly deliveries of fresh produce, and the vendors were able to give them individually wrapped products like baby carrots in a bag, orange slices, and apple slices.”-Katherine Staley, Chief of Program Integrity and Monitoring Branch with USDA Food Distribution Division

Katherine Staley also implied that apparently the sudden shutdown of schools and cancelation of civilian food vendor contracts caused many of those vendors to ‘go away’, and now many school districts are scrambling to find civilian food suppliers: “While states figure out how to get the other items, we are a failsafe. Our contracts are in place, our vendors are up and running and ready to go. It’s a team effort making this work.”

Staley pointed out that while many of the civilian food venders might be getting their food from foreign imports, all of the USDA DoD Fresh food “…is U.S. produced. It…supports American agriculture.”

48 states plus Guam, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, and Washington DC, use the USDA DoD Fresh program.

Texas spread thin: تحالف مصر وتكساس Egypt and Texas form alliance!

Image

On 29JAN2021, it was announced that armored vehicles assigned to 3rd Squadron of the 278th Armored Cavalry (Cav-all-ry, not cal-va-ry) Regiment, Pennsylvania Army National Guard, are being shifted to Texas Army National Guard, to support The Lone Star State’s military alliances with Chile, Czech Republic, and now Egypt: “The Texas Military Department is proud to play a key role in the overall U.S.-Egypt relationship. From the Texas National Guard’s continued participation in Exercise Bright Star – a decades-running, multilateral defense exercise, to Texas National Guard units supporting the MFO’s [Multinational Force Observers] mission in Sinai, Texas is a key player in the military partnership between our two countries. The formal establishment of our partnership through the State Partnership Program codifies and makes official a relationship between our militaries that has been in the making for decades.”-Major General Tracy R. Norris,  Adjutant General of the State of Texas

There is a town in Texas named Egypt, but in August 2020 the U.S. state of Texas and the government of the country of Egypt formed a military alliance.

In 1993 (end of the Cold War), Texas joined Nebraska in a military partnership with then newley created Czech Republic at the behest of the U.S. Department of Defense’s State Partnership Program.

Then in 2008, the Texas Military Department (aka National Guard) formed an military alliance with Chile.

On 24AUG2020, Egypt officially became a new military partner at a signing ceremony at Camp Mabry, Texas (another signing ceremony took place in Cairo, Egypt, later in the year).

Photo by Staff Sergeant Eliverto Larios.

Earlier in the year, March 2020, Texas Army National Guard took over ‘peace-keeping’ ops from Guam Army National Guard in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.

As part of the official alliance, Egyptian military and civil officials toured border operations along the Texas-Mexico border.

The border tour included a ride in an air-boat on the Rio Grande/Río Bravo del Norte.

In 2018, the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) began hosting border patrol training for Egyptian border guards at its academy in New Mexico: “The [Egyptian] delegation was surprised that we were willing to share so much information about our training program.”-Doyle E. Amidon Junior, CBP’s attaché to Egypt

Photo by Master Sergeant Mindy Bloem.

The official information about the new ‘long-term partnership’ says Texas and Egypt will conduct operations involving C-130 transport aircraft, F-16 fighter aircraft, cyber defense, logistics, special forces, homeland security response preparedness, military support to civilian authorities, and humanitarian and disaster assistance response.

In March 2015, officials with the Egyptian Military Nursing Training Academy came to Fort Sam Houston, Texas, to seek advice from the U.S. Army Medical Department Center and School, as well as the Christian (Catholic) University of the Incarnate Word in San Antonio, in how to deal with the increasing medical problems of the Egyptian population.

The State Partnership Program boasts that 84 countries have signed alliances with various state National Guard organizations.

Total Force/Pivot to Asia: Operation Turning Point

Since the presidency of Barack Obama, the U.S. Department of Defense is steadily shifting focus towards the Asia/Pacific region.  Sometimes known as Pivot to Asia, Pivot to Pacific, Total Force training for Near Peer Threats, maybe they should just bring back the phrase Cold War.

All photos by Petty Officer Second Class Michael Schutt.

It will be interesting to see how the new U.S. president, Joe ‘flip-flop’ Biden, handles the Department of Defense.  This month, the U.S. Navy SeaBees (construction engineers) and U.S. Marine Corps engineers have begun training to quickly build Expeditionary Advanced Bases (EAB) and Advanced Naval Bases (ANB), in case a major war in the Pacific breaks out.  (The U.S. Navy also just completed multinational Pacific region wargame Sea Dragon 2021)

May 2015: According to the U.S. Naval War College “Starting in 2010, the U.S. and Vietnam accelerated this process effectively forming a partnership on several fronts. The Obama administration identified Vietnam as one of the new partners to cultivate as part of its ‘rebalancing’ of U.S. priorities toward the Asia-Pacific region, a move commonly referred to as the U.S.’s ‘pivot’ to the Pacific.” 

October 2013: “Although Mr. Obama has cut military spending in various parts of the world, it has remained largely unchanged in Asia. By 2020 the Pentagon plans to deploy 60 percent of its warships in the Pacific and 40 percent in the Atlantic, compared with the current 50-50 split.”-New York Times

Soylent Green Pet Food? Or, are people being prepped to eat pet food?

Anybody remember when pet food industry subsidized veterinarians insisted that giving your dog or cat table scraps was bad, bad, bad?   If you go back far enough in time, to before the advent of industrialized pet food production you’ll see that ‘table scraps’ were the primary source of food for domesticated dogs and cats, after that they were expected to hunt down varmints if they were still hungry.  Fast forward to today and now the exalted pet food industry is actually using what was once considered table scraps in their pet food, and charging you a lot of money for it!

In the United States, pet food makers have been allowed to market their food for doggies and catties as being good enough for people to eat, or at least the pet food contains ingredients considered good enough for people.   There’s a lot of other oddities happening within the U.S. pet industry, here is an incomplete list of links to actual recent reports:
