In my Army, Officers ate after the Troops and got exactly the same fare as the Troops.
Whenever we differed from that we saw leadership problems.
Often times the supported unit cooks would send out hot meals to the helicopter crews... and as the standard Huey crew was four people and the Chinook standard crew was five people....it was not unusual to only get four hot meals and I always ate canned C Rations while my crew got the Hot Meals.
I believe in leading by example....and living up to admonition an Officer looks out for the welfare of his assigned Troops.
if you think yourself above eating with your troops....you are not much of a Leader and become a mere commander in an empty suit.
