The fast food is sold out of a trailer, typically. It's not a big deal. The swimming pools are frequently at the palaces where a pool already existed. There may be excess, but if there were not supplies available at these logistic centers there'd be no way to supply the troops. How would we fix helicopters, tanks, HMMWVs, and other items with an ultra lean system? Where would the soldiers get their fuel, MREs, and ammo? If Max thinks the PXs are too big, fine. But it's not exactly cushy living, and it's not the reason we're having problems there.

Of course, I agree with you totally. It just sounded like the basic services found on a permanent military installation. The author of this piece could be fishing for ways to view the military in a negative light, once again.
