I can give you a perspective of in the military, you learn to improvise, adapt, and overcome if you want to eat when the chow line is closed. While a young sailor in the Navy some 55 years ago, I was assigned to a fireroom (boiler space) of a WWII vintage Gearing destroyer, we had one of our guys up on a working party loading food supplies, he tossed a case of lobster tails down our hole. We cooked 'em in a galvanized bucket using the 150 lb. root steam drain for the bilge pump. We'd also "acquire" potatoes from the spud locker up on ASROC deck and cook 'em in the mud drum during the midwatch; officers never came down our hole but once a year for space inspection, the heat, the smell, the black oil and the legends of brutish snipes kept 'em away. ☺

I was a cook on two aircraft carriers, a replenishment oiler, and an amphibious assault ship. Actually, there are more than two galleys. The officers' mess is called the wardroom, with their own menu, galley, and cooks and the Chief Petty Officers (CPOs) have their own mess and their own menu, galley, and cooks. While the E6s and lower ranks eat off trays, the officers have their meals on real plates, cups and saucers, and nice silverware. It doesn't matter what type of ship, the officers don't eat with the enlisted. All 4 ships I was stationed on the officers have their wardroom mess.

This is the Ford Class carrier they are talking about not Nimitz class which had the 5 galleys you are talking about. Ford has what they call a conglomerate galleys, One Galley prepares Enlisted,Chief and Officers and aft galley is like a secondary one only in operation when Air wing is on board. One centralized galley aft serves meals to the crew, chiefs, and officers from three adjacent sides; and the forward galley serves officers on one side and air crew on the other. So Aft Galley on ford is now larger one where forward on Nimitz was. If they have a different galley for the Air Crew that is brilliant. One worst things I saw was having to stand in line during meal hours for 45 mins because all Air Wing was in line at same time. I was a Nuke and we did not have very much time when out to sea to stand around in line during the day to eat. When I was out to sea I lived off PB&J sandwich when had PB packets out.

I found that rather troubling. That said, Navy chow has gotten better and better. Carrier Sailors eat well and the ship usually never runs out of things. The smaller ships on the other hand had pretty good chow too, but they would often run out of certain items until the next UNREP which could be a while in some cases.

Spent most of my cruising time on FF's. You usually only had one or two senior cooks. Depending on how good your cooks were depended on how good the meals were. One unfortunate "stormy" night, we had chili for dinner with the expected outcome. But I can say that I never lost weight on Navy chow.

Everywhere from Boot Camp to State-side bases to deployed bases in the Middle-East, meal time is often a highlight in high paced, stressful days. In over 12 years of service, I can honestly say the food very rarely misses. Big props to upper management for understanding the mood and moral boost that comes from sitting down to a good meal.

Yet, when I've been aboard and toured galleys aboard cruise ships and aircraft carriers, I was struck at how much smaller the ones on carriers are. With fewer people in more constricted workspaces, whether it was in the butcher shop or bakery, I'm totally impressed at the way they handle the logistics of moving food and supplies around and manage time, all to please their crew.

Although I was never on an aircraft carrier I have to say that most of the meals I had in my 8 years in the Navy were pretty good.

I was pleasantly surprised at the high quality of the food I was served at the several Marine bases at which I was stationed. The food was quite good, varied, and plentiful.

People don't even realize cooks run a life or death operation as well, and I'm not taking about starvation. Say they have been at sea for months, haven't seen home and morale is low, but they still need to pay attention, and do their jobs. One nice "home cooked" meal that reminds the sailors of home will cheer them up and send them back to work with a smile making them more alert and preforming better

The navy gets the gravy and the army gets the beans.

This is peacetime dining at its best. Yet under the pressures of wartime, would we see a return to more basic dining as back in World War Two? Back then everything was more basic. The same entree would be cooked and served to everyone. It might be for Wednesday evening, dinner is beef stew with mashed potatoes, bread and butter, canned mixed vegetables, cherry pie, ice cream, milk, coffee. You wouldn't see a fancy of variety of foods. You eat what is served or you don't eat at all.

As a young child while living in San Pedro, CA one of my neighbors was in the Navy stationed at Long Beach Naval Station he was assigned to what I believe was a Fleet Replenishment Oiler ship. He took me on a tour of the ship once and I ate a meal onboard the ship. The food was really good. If my parents had decided to remain in California I most likely would have joined the Navy. But instead we moved to Loiuisiana and once I graduated high school I joined the Army and made it a career. Believe me Army chow was never as good as Navy chow.

Brought back my Chief a 20 lb can of coffee and that man damn near adopted me on the spot! Out to sea coffee is like liquid gold! I got us a small fridge so we could eat sandwiches instead of waiting in line for chow. Depending on what they were serving that day those lines could go on forever. People going on watch had head of the line privileges along with E6's so the wait could be long.
