People think specific meal that the US army have been served is an ominous WW3 warning

As the conflict between Israel and Iran continues to intensify people are fearful the US could be about to become more involved - and a lunch members of the army have been served has caused speculation over WW3 to ramp up.

In just a few days, tensions between Israel and Iran have escalated to new heights with both nations trading missile strikes.

US President Donald Trump has also been taking to social media to issue warnings to Iran and demand it agrees to the US’ demands or face further bloodshed.

This rhetoric already had people fearful we are on the verge of World War 3 erupting, as the middle east sees even more conflict.

However, one short video that is doing the rounds on social media has got people even more worried that the US army is gearing up for war.

TikTok user melly.fits shared a video on the platform showing him and a group of people eating in military barracks.

This is all normal enough, but people have speculated the meal they are being served is a dead giveaway the conflict is about the intensify.

The video showed the soldiers being served steak and lobster, with plenty of fizzy drinks also available.

Many users questioned whether this was a ‘deployment meal’, a more extravagant spread served to army personnel before they are sent out on missions or into a conflict.

One user commented: “The "yeah, we are pretty sure you're all about to die, have fun" meal.”

Another said: “Boost morale by serving what possibly could be their last meal.”

A third added: “The military will do a nice big meal right before deploying to an active combat zone. If you watch generation kill, the marine corps buys a s*** ton of pizza hut for the corpsman. Through this, they y realize they are about to invade Iraq before they get the official orders.”

With another writing: “A fancy meal is a sign for deployment. This association of fancy/good food and imminent combat comes from WW1 trench warfare. There soldiers were given good meals before an assault or push.”

However other people also pointed out this likely isn’t the true reason the soldiers were served lobster and steak, and that there was another explanation altogether.

As well as ahead of deployment, some former military personal pointed out on the post that similar meals are served for celebrations and special occasions.

And of course, the army recently celebrated its 250th birthday, with a parade - which also marked Trump's 79th birthday - taking place over the weekend.

Other videos on TikTok have showcased that same meal but to mark this celebration.

So, while tensions may be raised in the middle east, the videos showing the lovely meal might not be as ominous of a warning as people think it is.
