Cool video. But man...once they start getting those new UGR-E's (the self-heating UGRs), that'll save him a ton of time in boiling water to heat the meals.

That guy's kitchen facilities didn't look too fancy to me - more like a tent and a couple of portable stoves and some pots. I've seen some information out there on Natick's site about portable kitchen facilities but I just haven't paid too close attention to it.
