Just returned from my morning chores!

My wife had SOS scouring pads on the grocery list.
While checking out I mentioned to the clerk that when I was in the Army SOS meant "Shit On Shingle" a Mess Hall favorite.
The gentleman behind me said, "Same thing in the Navy" then the little old lady behind him chimed in....."or Same Old Shit!"

The official title was "chipped

beef on toast" but it tasted

more like the SOS terminology

Boot camp food was penal quality

but after graduation I was sent

to Curtis Bay in Maryland & was

treated to terrific Coast Guard

dining at it's best (no joke)

Since this is Sunday I would like to add that it has also been referred to as Save Our Souls.
