What is this?

Post by laughing_man » Sat Aug 16, 2008 7:55 am

Does someone know the true character of this?

----- Quotation -----
Ration collector must!
It is the ration of the U.S. Forces.
Although this is an early thing which began to be provided by make in 1986, and it passes over a best-before date long ago and it cannot eat, this is not MRE at an interesting thing.
Although the ration applicable to this was investigated, since information was not able to be acquired, I may be the thing adopted on trial or restrictively at the time, but I do not understand for details.
(I will be happy if you are able to teach at the more familiar one.)
This is a completeness unopened item and I think that there are few things which still exist since the equivalent item at the time was eaten or was thrown away.
Don't you make this your collection?
Although I owned two boxes, this becomes one box of last.
* This item is also an equivalent grade although the picture is using the previous thing.

WOW - i only can say you: BUY BUY BUY :!: :!: :!:

its more than rare and the best: its a sealed case!

its the older mre version in the darkbrown bags. its without a flameless ration heater for feeding the troops in the planes. the chance you get one of this mre is very small and a the chance you get a sealed case is like getting caught by lightning :wink:

damn! i would buy it - but i am in the worst position to get it... (language, shipping,...)

It is great! :shock:
However, since the price is $220, I afflict the head...

Supposing you wish, I will purchase in a substitute.
Probably, they will be the nearly $400 amount of money including shipping expense...

Really interesting :o ! I guess the case is similar to an usual MRE case, but I think it is without "Beans in Tomato Sauce". All menus of an usual MRE case which contain the beans are stated with "not for inflight/preflight use"!

Also see that topic:
