The first to the officials of cafes Munich and the second to the Many captains majors and lieutenant colonels attending the Reserve school or the command and general staff College in Munich from june 19-30. On june 27,1 asked the. Manager of the cafes Munich snack bar the following ques Tion Why Are reservists Csc personnel who Are eating in this snack bar with govern ment contract meal tickets allowed to use these meal tickets to buy Beer and Beer mugs they Are not food items and Are not authorized As part of the subsistence contract used for toy  answer i received was they Are authorized the Dollar amour it on the  when i pointed out that the ticket clearly stated breakfast up to j3" and that in no Way could Beer or Beer mugs be construed As either breakfast lunch or dinner. The reply i received from the same manager was we re giving them that because we can t Stop  i might Point out by Way of explanation that since we have no mess Hall in the Munich area contracts have been Given to our Community club and the snack bar to provide meals for persons coming toy to Munich. The contracts save the army More than $9 per Day per person a substantial amount of Money. So first i would like to know Why it is that you cafes. Feel you can t make the determination Between what food is and in t. By no stretch of the wildest imagination could anyone conceive that Beer and Beer mugs Are foodstuffs. I say enough enough of the taxpayers Money being wasted supporting the Early morn ing drinking habits of a substantial portion of the officers try Here and enough of that Money being used to buy souvenir Beer mugs of their visit to Munich. As for you the officers in question if there had not been a substantial portion of you do ing this i would not have even bothered writing this letter. However this morning i saw eight of you using your breakfast tickets to Purchase Beer. That was just during the 20 minutes i sat in the snack  for Beer mugs i counted at least 10 this morning. Last night i saw one of you buy six. Monday morning i saw another eight or 10 Beer mugs. Last Friday i saw one of you with three Beers on his breakfast tray and two Beer mugs. I have stood in line behind you and watched you use meal tickets to Purchase these items. You Are obviously out to milk the army for every Penny you can. In the process you Drain Money from the taxpayer. Contrary to popular belief going try is not your annual Opportunity to party and make Money. You Are supposed to be Down Here training and learning. Particularly for these attending  who Are our leaders Are supposed to be setting the example an example based on integrity ethics and moral leadership. For information on this see chapters 2 and 3, pm 22-100, military  from the example i see Here that of wasting army Money of ripping off toe sys tem of drinking so Early in the morning i can Only thank god that i am not assigned to your unit yours is the example of moral corrupt Ness and the Lack of the tiniest concept of what military leadership truly is.
