And this Hall fellow is just the messenger.
In case anyone missed it, McClatchey reported two weeks ago this is from General Stanley McChrystal himself.

By the order of Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, the International Security Assistance Force, or ISAF, is shutting down most of these reminders of home.

"This is a war zone - not an amusement park," Command Sgt. Maj. Michael T. Hall recently wrote on the ISAF blog.

Please note that Sergeant Major Hall is the messenger (whether he agreees or not is irrellevant).

According to the source at a previous FR post:

General Stanley McChrystal, the former commander of Special Forces in Iraq, who runs eight miles a day, eats one meal and sleeps for only four hours a night, has given orders to close the junk food concessions on Nato bases.

This is possibly a case of Queeg Syndrome.

I shall reserve judgement.

Don't. McChrystal is a fool. He also forbade soldiers from attacking the enemy at night.
