Field Rations!
So yeah... we're going into the field this weekend (Farnham)for the first time. Should be a fun weekend even though it likely won't me much more than a glorified camping trip. Too bad I have tons of homework and no time to do it. Edited by carl_the_sniper - 17 October 2008 at 1:12pm |

The breakfasts are chancy. Avoid anything Ham Steak if possible. If impossible, go for the one with mustard sauce.
The sausage and hash browns are the best breakfast, breakfast sausage is good too, and the bean and wieners are tolerable. Any lunch or supper with poultry is usually quite good. Tarragon chicken strips are delicious. Anything pork is usually edible but not amazing. Pasta or anything with cheese is hit or miss. The bread is dry as hell, but it comes right apart if you eat it with a bit of water in your mouth. It's good with peanut butter. Enjoy your camping trip, LOL. We just got rocketed again.

I always thought it would be funny to bring with me a NERF RPG type gun when I was on deployment. My brother had one growing up and it was pretty fun to play with. For effect, I thought about strapping a bottle rocket to it to make it seem as though it was somewhat real. |

Know how the szechwan chicken is Brihard? I've heard mixed opinions and they still have a couple goulashes left which are supposedly the best.

Not sure, but I've never run into a poultry IMP that
violated my rule of thumb. |

Thats one thing that Canadian soldiers know, we are lucky to have the best IMP's in the world. When I was in I had a colonel in the Green Berets offer to trade me his side arm for a box of lunch IMP's. By the way Carl and Brihard, if you guys know any older guys who are serving ask about the old omelette. Now that was a meal. The only thing it was good for was to make your boots water proof.

Ah yes, the mushroom omelette. That was also when they didn't think mac and cheese could give you food poisoning.
Luckily enough, they have stricter standards for production now and actually throw the ones that are over four years old in the garbage. You want to know how to really save time when it comes to growlies? Skip the whole heating phase and dig in. They taste pretty much the same hot or cold...cold is just faster. Oh, and this time of year, same goes for coffee. Just get the old airborne coffee in ya. (skip adding to water...consume 1x coffee packet and 1x whitener.) Trust me man, It took me 6 years of field time to figure these things out. I know it doesn't seem like rocket science when you have a warm arse. But once the snivelling kicks in, you'll be the most hardcore FNG in your whole section. Watch them squirm with the coffee thing. |
