Ran across this while randomly searching the other day, contains such fun stuff as the scale of issue of fruits, supplements, deployment rations and everything else a unit supply officer should know

some interesting tidbits in it:

religious rations should be over-ordered because they can be used to feed prisoners and other soldiers.

captured subsistence stocks should be used to feed local populations or enemy prisoners and should only be used to feed US soldiers as a last resort.

details of the medical ration pack , supplied only to hospitals

pdf document here

For the veterans: its ATP 4-41 - Army Field Feeding and Class I Operations, you might already be familiar with it

you get the same document if you search UGR-E Thanksgiving, its the seventh search result

some light reading for your next mre meal :)
