According to a story on KFOXTV, In El Paso Texas, it has been reported that Food stamp sales at have tripled at Fort Bliss. The report compares the usage of Texas Food Stamps in the area from this year and the three years ago. The data came directly from the Defense Commissary Agency.

The report goes on to show how Army Corporal, Robert Harris and his family recently became eligible for the food stamps in Texas (SNAP). I don't know whether to shake my head or scratch it, but it is a shame when enlisted people have to rely on SNAP benefits in order to survive.

Other military families applied for the program, some were not eligible, and others have either been approved or have not received an answer yet - in any event, all of the soldiers said that they were having trouble keeping their families feed.
