Military bases in US and abroad hit by baby formula shortage

Military bases, both in the United States and abroad, are feeling the effects of the nationwide baby formula shortage.

The shortage hit new heights last month when the out-of-stock rates exceeded 40% by May 8, though the problem has gradually worsened since last July. The shortage was also exacerbated by the February closure of a major Abbott manufacturing plant in Sturgis, Michigan, in addition to supply chain problems worsened by the pandemic.
 
"Current stock levels of available baby formula here in the continental United States is at 50% at our commissaries throughout the States, and overseas it stands at 70%," Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said during Monday's briefing.

But hey, if you're an illegal alien at the Southern border, you're swimming in the stuff!

I agree with Biden and the democrats, to hell with what  military families need.  Let them live in mold infested housing without baby formula but make sure illegal immigrants live in at least 3 star hotels with all the formula they need.  If they are given enough, they can sell the excess to the military families.
