Which service branches are listed as sole providers for animal and food inspection?

• A. US Navy (Animal and Food)
• B. US Marine Corps (Animal and Food)
• C. US Air Force (Animal)
• D. All three services

Answer: (D)

Animal and food inspection in the military is handled by multiple services, not just one. Each branch maintains its own veterinary corps that conducts inspections to ensure animal health and food safety within its operations. The Army Veterinary Corps covers land-based facilities and working animals; the Navy Veterinary Service handles ships and afloat dining and related food safety; the Air Force veterinary personnel manage base and deployable food inspections and animal care. Because all three services maintain competent inspectors and participate in the overall food-safety and animal-health mission, the best answer is that all three services provide these inspections.
