FEMA Marked MRE Cases

Post by cavguy »

Has anyone seen any of the FEMA marked MRE cases (civilian cases marked FEMA on one side)? I believe they are packed by Sopakco. Are they any different than the Sopakco Sure-Pak? I have noticed a number pop up on Ebay lately.

I honestly didn't know what you meant so I did a quick ebay us search for MRE Case and lo and behold I found this one and this one for sale at the moment.

This is what cavguy is referring to:
MRE FEMA Case
MRE FEMA Case
It's SoPakCo alright, but I didn't find anything on them as a specific variant. I've come across quite a few cases of MREs distributed by FEMA following Katrina, but none of those were specifically marked FEMA. It's new to me at least :mrgreen:

Thanks for the pic! That is exactly the case I was talking about, I wonder if these were handed out during federal disaster assistance?

Could be that these might be handed out to wildfire victims in Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, etc. I've been watching the news and seeing a lot of homes being destroyed, not to mention I just got back from 2 weeks in NM doing duty on the fireline. Thought I saw more cases of MRE's being handed out than these FEMA versions.
