Chow Hall Makeover: Corps pushes healthy food at the School of Infantry

by SOFREP News Team

“It’s not that we’re taking all of the bad stuff out of the chow hall; it’s about encouraging Marines to make good choices and try to limit the bad stuff,” said Col. Michael Watkins, director of the newly created force fitness division.

The Corps is eyeing removing the snack line from chow halls at the School of Infantry on both the East and West Coast, Watkins told reporters on Tuesday.
