New FSR component

Post by MCIera » Fri Jun 01, 2007 2:06 pm

Looks like HooAH bars are out of the FSRs and a new component, the First Strike bar will replace it.

Funny you should mention that, MCIera. I was digging through some DSCP docs yesterday and ran across something similar that basically said because of the deployment of the First Strike Ration, they wanted to change the name of the Hooah! bar to the "First Strike Bar" and there was a whole sheet of instructions as to where all they had to change the name. I'll see if I can dig up that link and post it.

I do like all the pictures of the bar wrappers in your link, though. Good stuff.

Here you go - check out the most recent Assembly Requirements doc for the MREs:

You can see the changes they made (highlighted in yellow) where they had to go through the document and change all instances of "HooAH!" to "FIRST STRIKE".

Thanks Kman. I wonder if they are just renaming the HooAH bar or if they are replacing it with a different product altogether.
