Hi,
Olli, the link to the pictures is broken. Is it the tagliatelle-Alfredo-like "Italienisches Nudelgericht mit Schinken" from the 1980's EPAs?

Was I starving with my French rations (corned-beef or ...corned-beef) or was it really so delicious?... anyway I still remember them 25 years later :lol:

If you cook it long enough, almost everything disapear... :shock:

Italienisches Nudelgericht is one of the "longest service" entree :!:

It is one of the favorites of Bundeswehr soldier. The oldest one I have is from 1977.

Stef,

they changed the outer shape of EPa entree at 1998/99 from square to rectangular:

So the rectangular Italienisches Nudelgericht can´t be from an 1980 EPa

OK, in fact I couldn't see the pictures but it was clearly something different: noodles in creamy sauce in the older style square tin.
