Dear forum members,

I'm a photographer in the process of working on a story for a major US newspaper about MREs and Rations of countries involved in fighting in Afghanistan. It's not going to be a silly piece as is usually done by media outlets, but a serious look at how each country feeds they're soldiers.

I'm in the process of finding rations from various places, but I'm having trouble acquiring some from places.

One country in particular is South Korea. I'd love any advice anyone has on procuring one (or two) from there. I'd be more than happy to buy one from anyone here of course too...

Thanks!

Ash

Those rations are elusive and difficult to get.There are couple of our asian members of the forums that have them.
Also there is a member that he might help.

True bypah, but.. how are you going to get them through US customs?
I think you might better contact asian members with your wishes, and have a photographer take the photo's in Asia itself.
There is a large chance that the rations do not arrive in the US at all, because they contain dairy and meat.

Thanks for your responses so far, and assistance. I'm planning on having all MREs sent to my newspaper bureau in Paris, and I'll have someone carry all of them by hand into the states.

Also, if someone could put me in touch with the Asian forum members, that'd be great.

Ahsley,
You can check the members map.there you can find the asian members.
Hope you got my PM.

I have some South Korean rations.
It is Type 1 and Type 2.
Type 1 is a retort pack and Type 2 is freeze-dry.
Both are rice cooking.

Supposing you desire dealings with me, please send PM to me.
