I was stationed there about 15 years ago. The long, dark winters and unhealthy leadership certainly wore on me as much as anyone. What, if anything, did the command seem to see as a solution?

The army food situation is a joke. A casual stroll through r/army will tell you all you need to know. I almost never ate at the dining facility. The closest one was rarely open, and the quality and portions were laughable.

It’s purely anecdotal, but it certainly felt like there was a disproportionately high number of guys from Florida, California, Arizona, and other warm states. It’s a big transition for sure.

In my opinion, the culture needs to change more than anything. Respecting the lives of soldiers is something that the army often misses in a misguided effort to place readiness above all else and get officers their OER bullets.

Thank you for reporting on this. The military has treated mental health as weakness for years, and it’s time that started to change.
