If that pack doesn't contain a book of matches, then 1970s liferafts would have been full of smokers cursing and plotting their revenge on the designer. :P

Heh heh...that's pretty funny. I didn't even notice that it contained all those cigarettes. Just what a naval crew needs to survive - food bars and cigarettes!

...Squids? :?:

The auction ends in 6 hours. If someone here buys it, I'd love to see pics of the inside. And hear how it tastes, if it's edible.

The guy has quite a lot of other old military items selling as well.
