    Celebrity Chef Robert Irvine visited the Phantom Centralized HUB to engage with 92G Culinary Specialists and provide professional feedback on their culinary creations. During the visit, Soldiers presented upscale plated dishes developed from Meals Ready-to-Eat (MRE) ingredients, demonstrating creativity, adaptability and technical skill. Irvine sampled multiple dishes and offered practical guidance on preparation techniques, flavor enhancement and presentation, emphasizing the importance of innovation even within field-expedient constraints. Pictured, Pfc. Patrick Connery asks Irvine how his experience in the British Navy has influenced the need to transform U.S. Army feeding standards to align with healthy guidelines while still preparing food Soldiers want to continue eating and enjoying.

    Throughout the engagement, Irvine underscored the critical role Culinary Specialists play in sustaining the force, noting that nutrition and morale are directly tied to readiness and lethality. By refining their craft and embracing continuous improvement, 92G Soldiers help ensure service members remain fueled, focused and mission-capable wherever they operate. The visit highlighted the Army’s commitment to professional development and excellence across all military occupational specialties.
