What did everyone cook today?

YooperDog https://meatgistics.waltonsinc.com/user/bob-stehlikBob Stehlik, You were close. The Lone Ranger bar was the disk candy bar, crunchy, that was wrapped in shinny silver foil. Ham and eggs… RVN 68-69, we were enjoying c’s that were packed 1946. The green color of the cans was migrating into the eggs. When hungry you’ll eat just about anything with calories. This was the original Green eggs and Ham. The Cigarettes had a prominent effervescent turquoise mold patina. Could never get the LREP’s to hydrate. BTY, i was issued one of the 1st M16’s, not yet an A1. Colt made the barrel and receiver (shiny chrome bolt), and the stock was made by Mattel, the Toy Manufacturing Company.
JoeB Oh, the original Green Eggs and Ham seemed delish (NOT). Bet ya that it was something you didn’t search out for a LONG time when you couldn’t get it any longer. Sounded something like my dad could not eat when he got out of the navy (chipped beef on toast). It was the only thing he wouldn’t partake in when mom made it in regular life. Yikes!

JoeB I went “in country” during Tet (Feb) 1968. We still had the M-14. They had enough weight to them we would exercise with them.

JoeB I have more than a few of those around, even had C-rats for time. The pound cake and canned fruit were great for bartering back in the day.
YooperDog Well #1 GI, what were you bartering for?

JoeB YooperDog Bob Stehlik OK you experienced users of a P-38. Did any of you refer to it as a John Wayne? You RVN vets have a few years on me and I was just wondering. By the way, I was lucky enough to start my Marine Corps enlistment with C-rats, but we ended with MRE’s. While both had their good and bad points. I definitely preferred the C-rats.

GWG8541 Yep. We sure did refer to them as a John Wayne (the original multi-function tool). Thanks for jogging an Old Corp Marine’s memory.
