I stole this from Wirecutter, who stole it for somewhere else.
This is a show of power. They call in over 25,000 troops and don't even billet them properly. Of course, 25K is a lot of warm bodies and beds.
Yet, we can plainly see what they think of the troops. The officers should be outraged. I made my troops sleep in some crappy places, but I always tried to do better for them than I did for myself.
Yeah, and apparently the 'billeting' is in VA and MD in cheep hotels. sigh...
