Re: King Surplus MRE's Available! August/September Inspection $43.95 FREE SHIPPING / $949 pallet +pack/ship!

Just so everyone knows, I did purchase a few cases of these from King Surplus before I contacted them and suggested they post here. I should receive them in a few days and I’ll let y’all know how they are. But the reports I read on /mres on Reddit look good so I decided to give them a try. I’ll let ...

Re: Suggestion: Increase file attachment size

Apologies for totally derailing this topic but...

It just has a giant "14" on one side and then this sticker on the opposite side:

While I only knew Igor virtually through the forums as JediMindTricks, it was a pleasure knowing and interacting with him. Rest in peace, Igor.
