Hi all,

I recently stumbled upon this ration, an EPa "Typ A", on which I couldn't find any information.
As you know EPas are numbered in either roman or decimal numerals so you might understand why I'm at a loss here.

The seller was nice enough to send me the pictures in full resolution since unfortunately I was a bit late to the party and he sold it to somebody else. For €15.
Have a gander:

So does anybody know anything about this ration? Is it just the predecessor of the roman numeral EPa?
Thanks!

Wow, what an "ancient" find!

Yes, these were in use 1960 to 1970s. The beverage e.g. 1958.

Thanks for the answer!
Do you know another source other than this site and wikipedia for information on EPas?

That's a lot of bread.
Do germans really like that sauer wet dauerbrot so much ?

"Lot"?
200g aren´t a "lot", thats as much as two Hamburger buns.
Yes - we like "real", dark, "moist", e.g. rye bread and can´t have sweet, fluffy, sponge bread all the time .
We have 600 different kinds of bread.

400g in this ration. For my taste that bread is to sour and strong.

It´s 2 x 200g.
So one is for continental breakfast, the second you have e.g. with the stew.
Which of the 600 different kinds of bread we have in Germany is too sour and strong to you?
