I served for 11 years as a grunt and I can tell you Stars and strips was never read. We despised that sorry excuse for a news paper. In fact I used it as shit paper when they handed it out to us in the field.

8 years infantry here. You’re right, I’ve only ever seen Stars and Stripes in lonely corners near the exits of commissaries. Nobody ever grabbed any; if Joe ever decided to read, he’d grab an Army Times on the way out of a shoppette, after of course grabbing an armful of Rip-Its and dip
