Hello!
I've just received the thing I bought at eBay France.
Do you have any idea what this is?

As it say´s "emergency food ration" on it, I guess it´s an emergency food ration.

Hi,
that's great: first, you had a T (Temperate climate) ration, now you also have the C ration ("Chaud" means warm/hot in French). They are same as the T packs but in the C hot climate ration there is no brandy (tea instead generally) and there's canned fish (sardines or tuna) instead of pâté. It's the ancester of the "no pork" RCIR.
79 is certainly 1979.
I didn't know the green version of the C ration. They were generally brown.
RCIR is a ...RCIR
The little pack is a survival ration but I don't know them at all.
