ALL,
Just got my Mobilization Order to put on the pickle suit once again for a year.
Not heading off to the Sand-box. Going to a not quite as hot, but much more humid location.
Duty ISO GWOT.
Will have internet connectivity.
Yes, I DO like MREs - Really!
Engineers Rule!

Never had an MRE. Occasionally dined on C-Rats when doing my time in-country. MRE's sure look better than C-Rats, although I doubt they still include those small cigarette packs.
Best wishes!

C-Rats had their advantages. I have fond memories of Beanie-weenies and Green-eggs-n-ham.
But MREs have greater variety and are pretty tasty these days.
No, No Cigarettes - we get tabasco instead. Mmmmmmmmmmm

MRE's sure look better than C-Rats, although I doubt they still include those small cigarette packs.I've still got a 35 year old P-38 on my key chain ... what an amazing little tool (which, with the exception of the word amazing, is what J-fn-K's neighbors used to say about him when he was a small boy)

Men and women of the US Armed Forces are the greatest. I admire all of you, and when I see a person in uniform, I thank them.
Thank you for your service to our nation and the world.

MRE = 3 lies in a row...
They're not meals
They're not ready
And you certainly can't eat them! :)

Semper Paratus, Frater. Give 'em Hell (and build a bridge to get at 'em...).
Stay in touch, wake up every morning with a thought for God, & know that your Cause is Right.

we get tabasco instead. Mmmmmmmmmmm Why would they choose a mild sauce?
A nice habenaro puree. Mmmmmmmmmm.
Side note, I once tryed to feed an MRE to my Akita.
When an Akita growls it's best to heed the warning.
Good luck and stay safe.
