Once again, my memory

Post by rationtin440 » Thu Dec 06, 2012 11:09 am

:( :oops: Hey guys, I cannot recall if I mentioned this before, but seeing that the components of the Dutch rations are all civilian grocery-store stuff, I'm wondering how many other countries rations have purely civilian products in them, either civilian marked for the military, or civilian marked for civilian. I'm hoping that anyone who knows me from forums has gotten accustomed to my memory issue by now, thanks for your patience! :)

The Dutch rations

came in two different ways. "Civillan" filled left, military right

The real military rations with their components

The civilian components

The story is, the Dutch needed too much rations for their troops in Astan, so they replaced their rations over here with regular grocery store items.

The only thing I don't like about those rations is the Main meal comes separate. I personally like it when its all packed in one box ready to go.

Thanks guys, lol! I was a bit confused because I thought the Dutch rations page said that all components can be purchased in a grocery store and there are no specific military food items in it.
