Unacceptable conditions at US military bases exposed — uncooked food, toxic mold and busted aircon
Story by Michael Kaplan • 19h
Black mold, busted air conditioning, uncooked chicken and paint in the eggs – shocking conditions not from a migrant shelter, but military barracks here in the US.
The men and women who protect the country often endure tough conditions in makeshift accommodations overseas, but they are also being subjected to awful lapses in service where they live and work in this country, pictures show.
“I’ve heard stories about toilets not working, bugs in the rooms, overcrowding. There was an issue reported last week about air conditioners not working [at Fort Liberty, in North Carolina]. The temperature in the room was over 90 degrees,” says Robert Evans, founder of website Hots&Cots.
“The military is hard. Going to the [battle] field or being deployed is hard. But your place of residence should not be hard. Having good food should not be hard. That is a low bar to have for our service members protecting our country,” he added.
