Hungry soldiers have exposed the food they are served at military bases up and down the UK – including raw chicken, maggot-riddled tomatoes and mouldy eggs.

Service men and women have been disgusted by dinners served up by civilian contractors for the Ministry of Defence.

One picture shows what appears to be a maggot lying in a pool of tomatoes.

Another shows a chicken drumstick that is bloody and raw in the middle – a major health risk.

One soldier posted an open letter to the Army hierarchy on social media, complaining about food served by private firm Sodexo.

He wrote: “Would you feed a homeless person undercooked or raw chicken?

The 3M of unit morale:
Mail
Money
Meals

Screw any one of those up, and you'll have a very unhappy troop, and unit morale will also take a hit.

And of the three, meals is the easiest for a unit commander to influence.

    Reminds me of a certain JTFEX shortly after 9/11 in PROA. We couldn’t even pull in to NSRR, just sat offshore for weeks on end. Skipper ordered Pizza Hut for the entire crew, and had the HSL det bring it back with the mail.
    He managed to really knock it out of the park that day. 2 of the 3 M’s were handled in superb fashion, and for the third there was direct deposit.

    You talk o’ better food for us, an’ schools, an’ fires, an’ all:
    We’ll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational.
    Don’t mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face
    The Widow’s Uniform is not the soldier-man’s disgrace.

    I have had raw liver, “beef stew” the consistency of thin gravy, rotten beef, and other gustatorial delights cooked by Army cooks. It doesn’t matter who cooks it, this can only happen when the so-called leaders are not doing their jobs. Someone needs to be relieved of command.
