Aw come on if you're going to reproduce the packing then why not reproduce the pouches and the food in them too.Militaryration_guy wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 9:11 amYa know, I've been giving some thought to reproducing these early prototype MRE rations (just packaging) and maybe putting modern MRE components in them that are close to the original contents. However its finding measurements of the main box and inner packages that has prevented me from doing it as I cant seem to find those dimensions anywhere. Sure would make for an interesting replica, and certainly fill a gap in my own collection that I might not ever fill since I pretty much stop at the MCI era, with 46-57 being my FAVORITE period, and don't do much with MRE's.

I think reproducing a card box is a bit easier then say... Setting up your own home thermostabilization plant and then packing the food in retorts
