I drive a truck that doesn’t have second gear, it goes from first to third, a shelter that doesn’t power up normally, and live in barracks that should be condemned. But the Army can afford $4,500 for a toilet? I should hit myself in the head to the point where I am retarded so I can get a job in finance.
But it’s not just any toilet. The WC-16 features a stainless steel commode, a vacuum-assisted flush, an automatic emptying cycle and an incinerator that turns human waste into fine ash, which needs cleaning out only twice a year. The prototype, which cost $4,500, had its debut in January at Kosovo’s Camp Bondsteel.
