It takes 38 rocking motions to open a c-ration size can?

Or, it is 38mm long. But this was before metric was common.

There was a larger one, called P51. It would take fewer motions, but was 51mm long.

Yes and yes
P38 was for personal sized cans.
P51 was for "group" larger sized cans.

Still have my first P38, its showing its age, but it’ll still open a box or letter as well as ever.

When I was in, John Wayne bars were the MRE oatmeal cookie bar. Eat enough of those you be walking like John Wayne all the way to the crapper.
