Nice pics and info, rik_uk3! I noticed that there was no mention of the folding hexamine cooker and fuel tablets in the sundries or anywhere else. Are they still issued with the 24hr rations?

[rik_uk3]

Hexi stoves are a separate issue so still used. These days a lot of stoves are available for patrol use, Primus Omnifuel and the likes of small Coleman may be there to use. One lad I know said a lot of troops took there own small stoves ETA stoves/Jetboil sort of thing.

Thanks for the reply rik_uk3! I wonder why they are no longer issued with the ration, mebbe to save weight, but probly as you said with the availabilityof stoves forpatrol use.
