We rarely ate hot meals. MREs for 8 months. Crapping a cinder block once each week.

I remember one hot meal that the USMC sprung for. I will say that one of the most memorable meals involved a cow we slaughtered wandering through our sector. Somehow our First Sgt had some lobster shipped to us and a few days later we feasted on surf and turf!
