Hi folks,

i want to show you a few pictures of a 1969 German Einmannpackung Type A:

All looks very good, no leaks or something else. I got only this one, so i can not tell you something about the taste

Best regards

Great!
I've never seen/eaten any EPA older than the early 80's!
This one doesn't look so bad for a 37 year old box and the tins haven't even swollen

The famous German quality I guess...

thanks for the nice pictures ... and 73's

Looks good enough to eat!

So, the jam comes in the toothpaste tube? Very cool.

Thanks for the pictures.

this "toothpaste" tube is similar to the margarine tube in the EPA's of the 80's. This margarine was quite good on a cracker for a January morning breakfast on a frozen training field in eastern France... hey it reminds me my 20 years....

Great. I prefer the toothpaste tube of Vegemite, in the Aussie packs. MMMM, nothing can compare to Vegemite on a biscuit! Nice history, anyhow.

Vegemite in Aussie rat-packs??

Yum-yum.

That canned cheese is surprisingly good, not as good as MRE jalapeno cheese though.

Not as old as Rudi´s 1969 EPa, but 1984 one. Just 23 years old rooky ration...

The cover is still the same as today.

All the containers inside are still in good shape, airtight and nothing is leaked.
As soon as i get a second one, I will open and try it.
I bet, it´s still OK.
German EPa quality...
