Cripes, John. and I'm sure you still crave spam w/hot sauce...

C-rations. yougotta love 'em.

o'f course, if you eat enough of them, I suppose you could start to
like them......

SOS, grits, and powdered milk. An all white breakfast. Chase it down with
chicory coffee blend. Makes you want to re-up just for the gourmet food.


It's obvious to me that both y'all know a lot about good food!

Ever have mystery meat in the CRATS?

Freakin' awful. I swear this is true - we were on an op up near Hue
and the CRATS they gave us were from the Korean War.

I have a package of Lucky Strikes in the green package that came with
one set of CRATS - those are from WWII. :)

Kids today have it too good I tell 'ya. :)

I will say this for the Squids - they had some decent food. Never
forget an R&R at Cam Rahn - real roast beef, real mashed potatoes,
real veggies and honest to god real blueberry pie with vanilla ice
cream.

Don't tell the Squids in here that I said that - ruin my upstanding
reputation. :)


Did you ever get to Vung Tao for in-country R&R? Cool place. Great place
for pictures.


Nope. Cam Rahn and Sydney, AU with a guy from the Aussie SAS whose
family owned a cattle ranch.

And when I say ranch, I mean an area the size of Wyoming kind of
ranch.

Amazing place Australia.

I really hate to admit this, but I had a fondness for dehydrated eggs.

Don't ask me why - I loved the damn things.

I will admit that combat rations today are much better than they used
to be. In particular the vegetarian meal - it's really pretty good.
Just recently, I had the veggie/cheese omelet - that wasn't half bad
either.


C-rations. Navy beans and ham, hot or cold, with tobasco. Can't beat it
with a stick.

Best place to eat was 'Country Kitchen' where chicken fried steak,

'taters and gravy, all the iced tea and cornbread you could eat, and a
double order of collard greens ran a total of $6.79, excluding tax. Now
*that's* my kind of restaurant.

I hope everyone was good while I was gone!


Ah, yes...the greasy, high cholesterol, high fat, artery choking
southern diet. Did you put lots of salt and butter on the greens?


Harry,
If you are not eating high fat, high carb and generally a poor
nutritional diet with very little exercise, how did you get so
overweight, bloated and generally stressed out? I don't think I have
ever seen a pudgy hand with fat little nail bitten hands as you have.



Don't know much about focal length, eh?


Harry, you got busted by the one eyed no lie.
