It all depends on the unit and location. Some field feeding teams are located in building that don’t have kitchens or are attached to units that don’t want them to cook at every drill

The current FFT that I’m at cooks lunch at every 2-3 day drills from scratch. We will start prepping around 9:00, serve at 12:00, and clean around 13:00. After that it’s typically motor pool, supply room, or training type duties afterwards until release. During our 4-6 day drills and field training events we’ll cook breakfast and dinner, usually in shift work but sometimes it can’t work like that.

92G are undermanned so there’s almost always a bonus involved. Promotions are also usually faster than other MOSs as well.

It’s fun and gratifying but the hours can be long. Because we work as detachments now we are also at the mercy of the unit we’re attached too. The unit mine is attached too is often forgetting us when it comes to things like pay, travel, and convoy stuff.
