I find an interesting video on the you tube.

This is report in Marine Corps Air Station Futenma in Okinawa, southwest in Japan in 1987.

Great videos, katojapan! I especially like the second one - it has some nice pictures of the new MRE bag designs.

I was laughing when it got to around 3:10 in the video - they have a shot of the slogan "Warfighter recommended, warfighter tested, warfighter approved"...but the narrator is reading it "Warrior recommended, warrior tested, warrior approved." Oops. :-)

Overall on that second video, I got the impression they were really sampling upcoming UGR meals and not MREs. After all, it's not like MRE parts come in big huge serving trays like they were using. And I also don't recall seeing a "Catfish" MRE.

But it was still a good video!

well i watched the first video and thought i was watching full metal jacket.
But then i seen the second video (in the first player) called "mre review". Dont watch it! made me want to punch him square in the face. It was more like a MRE slander you could say?

Which second video are you talking about? The one I saw was a press junket about new MRE/UGR parts coming out.

well in the first player. after the video plays, theres a list of thumbnails on the bottom. When you roll over them it wil display the title. Look for the one titled "mre review" along with the face of a goofy bushy haired kid. They also have a couple vids of mre bombs and the instructions.
