Re: 2022 Meal, Cold Weather MCW Case is Still the Same

Perhaps these were factory rejects that failed inspection, and were tossed... possibly fished out of a dumpster, so to speak. Then resold. No exact answer, but that's possible. Sorry to say but these MCW are genuine issue, wrote a bit a about the bad seals and so on in a post this winter. The USMC ...
