Hi rudi. The bag colors were changed from dark brown to tan in 1996. I mentioned this on the MRE menus page here:

http://www.mreinfo.com/mre-menus.html (look under the 1996 menus)

But I just saw that this information is not on the MRE Improvements page where it really should be, too:

http://www.mreinfo.com/mre-improvements.html

I'll have to get that added. Thanks!

Hi Rudi. No worries about your english - it's very good. A lot better than my German. :-)

Good luck with that auction. I hope he's not asking too much for that case. I've managed to pick up a few old cases off of ebay but I haven't had to pay much more than US$20 before.
