10th MOUNTAIN DIVISION style S.O.S. (SIT on a SHINGLE), with 2 fried eggs on top & coffee, circa WWII.
(IF you need the recipe, check out the 10th Mountain's webpage.)

GREAT "old school" GI CHOW, which warms my old soldier's soul.

NOTE: When I was recalled for "the run-up to" Desert Shield, I found myself quickly assigned as a "staff housing facility" manager & also "in supervision of" a MP BN dining hall.
On the first evening, we got in 2 companies of ESCORT GUARDS (mostly retired SENIOR NCOs, paygrades E8/E9), who were to deploy to escort casualties back to CONUS. - ALL of them ask, "Can we have S.O.S. & 'eggs to order' in the Mess Hall?" = I said, "I'll ask."

When a CWO3 (a REAL mess steward, who had been recalled to AD, too) arrived at 0500 on Day 2, I asked that question & he said, "YOU BET & HOT BISCUITS every AM too."
(When the word got around, we were the BUSIEST Mess Hall on post & the mess hall soon served food 24/7, as we Mike Papas work "weird shifts".)

As the months rolled by, I wondered how many thousands of HOT BISCUITS that our mess hall served during Desert Shield & Desert Storm. = NO clue but MANY HUNDREDS of sheet-pans full.
