CAMP TAQADDUM, Iraq (Jan. 13, 2006) ? Staff Sgt. David J. Lerner, aka Mr. Vice, laughs during a mess night here Jan. 13. Normally, mess nights are held at officer clubs or other suitable places either on or off base where Marines can suit up in their dress blues while in garrison. However, Staff noncommissioned officers and officers with 8th Engineer Support Battalion, 2nd Marine Logistics Group (Forward), did not don their blues or sit in a fancy restaurant, but rather ate their food off plastic plates inside a tent while wearing the same desert camouflage utilities that they have worn for months on end. Lerner is a maintenance chief with 8th ESB, 2nd MLG (Fwd).
