I hope I will have a chance to test a Croatian ration one of these days.. They are bloody expensive on ebay
This is a double fun for me, because of the labels. I can understand this, but some of the words sound funny to me :) - they are similiar to Polish words, but they are "false friends"
Have access to: Polish, French, UK, US, sometimes other.
Interested in:New Zealand, Jordan, Israel, any South America

When I was reading this I was in a hurry so didn't had chance to reply in that moment and I just remembered it, so... sorry for late reply.

Since my friend had them listed on ebay I will take liberty to wrote some stuff in his name, about IBO's they are one of the rare rations, beside I know how much my friend in the end after payed all fees and everything get's and it's like price of 2 MRE's so you do the counting is it greed or just no other option but to have price like that - none listed in this moment also. In my eyes it's almost like he gives it away for free, since he in return gets amount equal purchasing just 2 MRE - I think for the type 3 was even less... If only you know all the hustle and energy that goes into obtaining IBO's, as I said once my friend in professional Army had opportunity only once to get IBO and he saved it, as a suvenir... When one wants to try UK, French, German, Russian ration it's always possible. Who likes Russian they can get them when ever they want, but you can't get Croatian ration like that, even Slovenian ration is easier to obtain then IBO.

Well, I also wanted you to know the first chance I get my hands on some IBO's one is reserved for you, I'll pm you - no worries, just have patience :wink:

I'm really impressed by the Croatian ration. I think it compares much better to many other rations of Eastern Europe such as Ukraine, Russia, and Lithuania (Although I never got my hands on any of these rations yet :( ).
Good luck and may your rations stay unspoiled!
