You are running ahead of my time if you were E5 or E6 in 88. I was still a young pup at Hurlburt Field and Camp Rudder then. What years were you with 1st CAV ? June 88 to june 89 C trp 2/7th Task force. 11Chuck Mtoe slot. All us incoming 11B E5 and E6 were giving a brief at 3 Corp HQ from the 11M commitee outta Benning Go to 2AD and 41st IN and convert to 11M or go to 1st CAV and fill in on Motar Crews. They were all 19 series guys Scouts and Tankers Filling in as 11C let me stay 11B Spent my 1st 4 yrs at Carson and Germany as Mech IN. Hated that schit but didnt have the choice. Then when they started up formalizing 11M many of us seen the 11B route would send us to light units only. Fugg being in a high payoff tgt armoured beer can 113 or Bradley 11B 24yrs...

I’m with kaywoodie, in the fact that I liked the beans and weenies in C Rats. The MRE beans and weenies weren’t so good. The oldest C Rats I ate were, I think, 28 years old, which I was told was the usable life.

Fugg it... Eat em if they look and smell good. Your gut and sphincter will eventually let ya know one way or the other.
Sure as fuuuuk would not eat a menu # 22 shrimp jambalaya. Starving dog in a bombed out mig 21 bunker at the mosul airfield turn her nose to that one, but would eat the fugg outta the other 23 menu,s.
Even dogs knew menu # 22 sucked azz back then.
The brothers liked it though.... Go figure..... 🤣🤣🤢🤢🤣🤣🤣🤣🤢🤣🤣🤣🤣 Ancient shrimp does sound deadly...

They are a great diet plan. Guaranteed to lose weight when that's all you have to eat. Probably lost 5-10 lbs a month. In other words, they're mostly inedible.
Who here was glad to play the MRE lottery and draw scrambled eggs?

My tags are in my retirement shadow box for when I die. Ain't got no I love me stuff on display except a plaque my 39 armed little goons/ brothers gave me 90 days after OIF 1 on my way to my 3rd tour in Korea. Alla that stuff is boxed up in the Harry Potter closet under the stairs the wife, kids, and grandkids if any happen can go thru that when I kick the bucket. I roll sterile in john Q public. But plenty of old wolves and young wolves I served with or raised up are around here. Khanarella can burn me up in my class A,s in a garment bag in the closet. Might make her a trinket fruit salad and metal schit shadow box and stick it the closet with the rest of the stuff to be discovered

I have the same garment bag in the back of the closet. I had no intention of seeing it on me again but…
The grandaughter wanted me to put it on for a Veterans day pic with her. 18 years later and it fits the same as always. Next time I wear it I’ll be getting that 21 gun taps thang.

Fuuuk.... When I went to OSUT at Harmony Church in 83 for about the 1st 7 weeks we was eating C Rats with 68 date on em. Then we got new fangled MRE,s ... Woooo eeeeeee.
Drills, all exicited about em too...
That schit all wore off quick. The fuuuking loaf meats and loaf meat combo,s in some of em... Uh huh..... LRRP,s/ dehydrated field rations in Germany on Border Gaurd 86 to 88 and in Korea in 89 90 were actually not that bad if ya let em reconstitute with water the right amount of time. You eat them things dry or partially rehydrated they will dehydrate you quick and most def plug up your ass for a day or 3...
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Could get LRRPs when I was at FT Greely in the mid 80s thru TISA/Commissary. They stocked them for the Northern Warfare Training Center, 3 MREs a day didn't provide enough calories for winter training so they added a LRRP. Used them on some fly-in hunting trips. Bought a case just before PCSing out in '88 and took them to my father's place - we would use them on backpacking and canoe fishing trips. They were as good or better than commercial freeze-dried stuff at the time. When I cleaned out my father's garage last summer after my parents passed I found three or those LRRP meals stashed away, still sealed up. Gave them to my brother, he'll almost certainly try eating them sooner or later!
