This is an interesting story on the investment, future and primary industry involved with the Australian Defence Force ration production.

That was a really neat vid. I like the new way the rations are going but man, I sure felt the pain of the locals in that town.

Cheers!

Very interesting video, a shame about the local farmers / suppliers.

Noticed the hexi cooker was used upside down.

Yes it looked like it was upside down also the faded pacific pattern camouflage uniforms and boonie hats looked like something from the early Vietnam war.
It is worth noting Australiah was a pioneer in the field of modern rations, They put a great amount of effort into making a balanced meal that could be carried and prepared under very adverse conditions
