Re: Selling my collection
I hope Steve1989 can get in on the action here! He's always looking for RCWs, you may consider reaching out to him directly to see if he's interested. Hopefully you've seen his excellent ration reviews on YouTube. Here's his profile: https://www.mreinfo.com/forums/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=1...

Re: 1982 Food Packet, Survival, General Purpose Review
And finally, here's the entire...um, meal? Anyway, it's ready to eat and that's what matters! 20211224_194625281_iOS.jpg I decided to leave the other two cereal bars intact for the collection since I don't feel a need to open two of the same thing. Here's a closeup of the granola cereal and corn fla...

1982 Food Packet, Survival, General Purpose Review
I went to an Army Surplus store one afternoon and found this laying on the shelf for $20. It's a Food Packet, Survival, General Purpose that appears to have been manufactured in September 1982 based on the "9 82" stamp on the case (I'm not certain if that's the production date or inspection date, bu...

Re: 1991 Corned Beef Hash MRE Review
I've had similar issues here as well. I'd recommend you try uploading them to imgur, they do not have a limit on image sizes. If you're more technically aligned, you could try compressing them, although I think having high quality photos are important for documenting historical rations which is why ...

1991 Corned Beef Hash MRE Review
It's been a while since I decided to try an old MRE for dinner. I was actually hungry tonight and wanted to try something more adventurous for dinner, so I grabbed this!

1989 Ration, Cold Weather (RCW) Components, Part 2
This has been my second chance to try out one of the older Ration, Cold Weather ration items (predecessor to the current production Meal, Cold Weather). I picked these up about a year ago at a surplus store and was surprised to find them. I know some of these components are highly sought after. Some...

Re: 1987 Beef, Ground With Spiced Sauce
This is one of my favorite vintage MREs! It holds up well, is filling, and the fruit mix and the chocolate oatmeal cookie are a good mix. It reminds me of the newer Sloppy Joe MRE, I wish they still made that one.

Re: Review: 1989 Ration, Cold Weather (RCW) Components, Part 1
Nice catch! I just checked, when I previously reviewed a 1989 2A/2B RCW here, it was not included.
