#introduction
I grew up on Air Force bases. When dad was stationed in Yakota AB, Japan, and I was around 9 or so (give or take), a boy slightly older than me committed suicide. His suicide note said he did it so that his siblings could get more food.
These days, military families are encouraged to apply for food stamps if they qualify. Back then, no one checked if families were struggling. Considering how much we spend on our military, NO military family should ever go hungry.
