Go into any American military chow hall (excuse me, "dining facility") & you will find an astounding amount & variety of food. I know it wasn't quite this way in post-war Japan but, in comparison to their own situation, the Japanese probably thought so.

Whatever it was, I'm glad that the skirmish did not escalate. I've never been in a war but I totally believe General Sherman's assessment of war as hell.
