The British soldiers are expected to carry a 'tommy-cooker/Esbit stove get-up, in their kit, just like the Germans, whom, by the way, carry their own steel knife/fork/spoon set. It's no secret, EPa's have no plastic spoon/whatever. P.S. Americans don't say 'Kit'. We say 'Gear'.

So it´s "mess gear" no "mess kit"?

One bummer is that as far as I can see there is no hazlenut spread, was looking forward to try one of the red squeeze tubes! Thought they were included in almost every ration

Ringo: Hey, John, who has been messing with my drum kit?

John: It was Paul, he called it a drum gear cause of the American influence of his wife Linda.

Yes, mess-kit, is correct, for that item only. Everything else is gear, not kit. My bad.
