Nice pics! Can anyone translate the contents? I like the added instructions for how to prepare it in English - that sure would help!

A main meal is "Beef Curry" of "Combat Ration Type II".
In the bag, "Beef Curry", a "Tuna Salad", and "Red Pickles" are contained.
Please make Beef Curry hot and eat it.
It is very spicy!

This meal was excellent.
The soup was excellent, with a good flavor and consistency. The vegetables and beans had a great aroma when the water was added, usually some soups need a bit of extra seasoning, this one didn't need any thing.
The main meal of Beef Curry,was delightful. The spices in the curry was fantastic, the tangy flavor made the rice and veggies delectable. The rice was the usual sticky rice and proper for a combat ration pack.
Now the thing which is lacking is a desert, a drink packet of tea or a fruit juice.
Optional items, toilet paper pack, and possibly a small flask of sake.
Other than that the meal is fantastic and I recommend it to any one.
