Anyone know what's in these cans...

Post by Phu_Bai » Thu Jan 06, 2022 4:11 pm

I have the "tall" cans, not short of a B-1 and B-3 unit from 1966 C-Rations. Can't really find anything definitive online of what might be in there. Have an idea as far as crackers, maybe jam or something. Not really sure. Thanks.

Picture? If it's the tall B-3, then it ought to have cocoa and cookies, IIRC.
most wanted: RCIR, MCI/B units, IMPs, anything old, and a packet or two of RAFCO soup. PM if you've got these, or anything else to sell that isn't too expensive.
