First Gen MRE Alternative Menu 's - Beefsteak and Chicken Loaf

Post by Cortexmelon »

Finally! I've been trying to find and aquire both of these for SO LONG!!! Back in the first generation of MRE's from 81-85, menu 9 and 12 would sometimes (super rarely) be replaced with essentially a 9B, and a 12B. These are so hard to find, and both have never even been opened and shown online, especially the beefsteak, which is very a super unknown brown bag MRE. The unicorn MRE basically!. I'll be doing menu 9B, Beefsteak, this week for my YouTube channel.

If anybody has any more info these that I don't have, I'd love to know more, thanks!

Dudeman253 may run across them but so far the cases he has opened to sell have had that menu substituted with Grilled Chicken Breast. I miss C-Ration Beef Slices and Potatoes w/Gravy.
