Pentagon orders cut in pork purchases for military rations
The Defense Supply Agency disclosed a February memo directing Army Navy Air Force and other services to halve pork product use including bacon ham sausage and related items. The change aims to lower costs with potential substitutions like margarine and butter price shifts noted in 1964 to 1965 comparisons. The switch targets savings of about 648 million dollars annually according to officials.
