Yeah, military bases are sadly notorious for being built on superfund sites and otherwise exposing recruits to levels of contaminants even in living quarters. No one expects safety on a battlefield but hazardous air and water on base or at boot camp is something else. It's a national disgrace among many regarding our treatment of troops and vets. ?
Not sure what kind of meat thermometer you mean, but mine is just a thing you stick into the meat with a dial on the end, so that's a tool that goes in the drawer along with the pastry cutter, whisk, and potato masher. To me, appliances are generally electrical and large enough that they can't be put in a drawer and often sit on the counter, like a stand mixer, toaster oven, blender, etc. But it's all semantics, because I call a screwdriver a tool, but I don't call and electric drill an appliance, and even a table saw is a tool. ?
