华盛顿——当地时间周三,美军参谋长联席会议主席丹·凯恩将军就美国军方在“史诗之怒行动”期间的餐食和咖啡因消耗情况进行了量化说明,目前美伊之间脆弱的停火协议开始生效。
在特朗普总统与伊朗宣布暂停战事以继续谈判数小时后,凯恩向记者介绍情况时表示,在这场持续近六周的战争中,美军已经消耗了近100万加仑咖啡,以及数量不明的尼古丁。
“在此期间,我们消耗了超过600万份餐食,据我估算,还有超过95万加仑咖啡、200万罐功能饮料以及大量尼古丁,”他补充道:“但我并不是说我们存在成瘾问题。”
这一咖啡消耗量换算下来约合760万杯。凯恩并未具体说明功能饮料的品牌,是魔爪、 Celsius还是其他品牌。
凯恩对服役人员表达了感谢,感谢他们为国家做出巨大牺牲,忍受了种种不适且难以预料的战地生活。
“这是一场艰苦且残酷的行动,”凯恩说道:“局势混乱、环境酷热、天色昏暗,一切都难以预测,永远充满未知。我们的军人义无反顾地踏入这些未知领域,继续向前推进。自始至终,联合部队都展现出了国家要求我们具备的坚定不移的决心。”
在此次简报会上,美国国防部长皮特·赫格斯表示,五角大楼“目前”已经完成了任务,但会继续“在该地区保持存在”。

Washington— Gen. Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, offered a by-the-numbers look Wednesday of the meals and caffeine the U.S. military has consumed during Operation Epic Fury, as a fragile ceasefire agreement between the U.S. and Iran begins to take hold.
Briefing reporters hours after President Trump and Iran announced the pause in fighting to continue negotiations, Caine said the U.S. military has consumed nearly 1 million gallons of coffee in the nearly six-week-long war, and an unspecified amount of nicotine.
“Along the way, we consumed more than 6 million meals, and by my estimate, more than 950,000 gallons of coffee, 2 million energy drinks and a lot of nicotine,” he said, adding: “But I am not saying that we have a problem.”
That figure works out to about 7.6 million cups of coffee. Caine didn’t specify whether the energy drinks were Monster, Celsius or something else.
Caine expressed his gratitude to the service members who sacrificed so much, and endured uncomfortable and unpredictable days on behalf of their nation.
“This is gritty and unforgiving business,” Caine said. “It’s chaotic, it’s hot, it’s dark, is unpredictable, and there’s always unknowns. And our people proudly walked into those unknowns and continue forward, and through it all, the joint force has demonstrated the unwavering resolve that the nation demands of us.”
At the briefing, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the Pentagon has done its job “for now” but will be “hanging around” the region.
