"Our nation’s troops stationed overseas will feast on Thanksgiving dinners with all the trimmings this year, thanks to a federal service agency that provides everything from the actual birds to eggnog, marshmallows and stuffing."

"Over 15,000 pounds of turkey and nearly 2,000 pies have been sent to troops in Afghanistan in time for a holiday meal, according to the Defense Logistics Agency, a federal service agency for the U.S. military."

"DLA Troop Service is also sending another 37,000 pounds of turkey to service members in Iraq, Jordan and Kuwait."

PLUS Holy sheet."

"25,970 pounds of beef
17,130 pounds of ham
706 gallons of eggnog
3,360 pounds of marshmallows

I still like eggnog but I can't drink that much or I pay for it in the outhouse.
