One is always charged for meals when in a military hospital if you are
paid subsustencence allowance. I paid it when I was on active duty and
hospitalized on several occasions It eliminates double dipping -
collecting money to buy food on the economy and getting the equivalent
amount in food as a patient.

Okay, now it seems a lot more reasonable. Thanks for sharing your
experience and knowledge, Sandi.
