Vintage 1980's LRP Review - Food Packet Long Range Patrol Ration Menu 2 Chili Con Carne
Posted: Fri Sep 25, 2020 2:07 pm
This is a review I've been looking forward to for a long time. Today we are taking a look at a Food Packet Long Range Patrol or LRP for short. This particular ration is most likely from the mid 80's but I'm still uncertain of the exact date. Utilizing a Freeze-Dried main entree, the LRP was designed with weight savings in mind. The LRP, also known as "lurp", is currently the longest serving U.S. military ration. Although this ration has undergone several changes over the years they have been in continuous limited service all the way from 1966 until present. My mind was absolutely blown taste testing this ration. It was literally in perfect condition. Every single item was completely edible and oh boy...did I enjoy it to the last bite.
