No Nebr a walloping Good letter. Commissaries note Good neighbor rules i read an article entitled Good neighbor in sol Diers Magazine. This article said that army commissaries can now donate edible but unsaleable food to the needy in the civilian sector after items Are first reduced in Price and offered to customers. They quoted title 10 of the . Code which was amended last fall. The article also said that the pro Gram in t costing the government any Money because these items would have been destroyed anyway. Pm stationed in Pir Masens and i recently was the food destruction no for a Day. I could not believe the amount of food that had to be destroyed because the cans were dented and could not be sold. I sure would like to see the commissaries in Europe donate this food that cannot be sold to orphanages in Europe or other charitable programs. It would sure Benice to see a smile on their faces and to know that someone cares about them. Another suggestion would be to give this food to the army Community services acs food Banks which some acs groups have established to help the Lowe enlisted soldiers and their families. I know if i was a private first class or specialist fou with a family and it was a few Days before payday with no Money i surely would be glad to get a few dented cans of soup or tuna Forti. Before i close this letter i would like you to under stand Why i feel so strongly about this matter. When i was a private first class making Osrey $92 a month twas hard to make ends meet Tor the whole month. Sometimes i wondered How i would make it to my next payday. I would have been very Happy if someone offered me a dented can of food. Abo when i see documentaries on to with Al these Small children starving it makes me sick know ing All this food is going to waste when it could give these kids something to eat and be a Little bit healthier. So commissaries Don t throw the food away give it to someone who can use it i remember a saying when i was a kid do no throw upon the floor the bread you cannot eat for there Are Many Little ones that would think it s quite a maybe the answer i receive from this letter win put Joy in my heart and food in the stomach of others.
