Love y'all, but this isn't news.

This happens literally everytime a unit goes literally anywhere.

Weekend exercise your commander put together last week? Sleep on the ground.

Month long training exercise you've been planning for a year? Sleep on the ground.

Deployment to a foreign country for nine months? You guessed it! Sleep on the ground.

They didn't even deploy with cots? The only time I slept on the floor was when I had to keep the mobile server room secured.
