MREs info


MREs have had many interpretations of the acronym other than "Meal Ready to Eat". One of the best known being "Meals Rejected by Ethiopians". After a successful raid of our chow truck in the piney woods of Fort Drum, NY by a band of black masked varmints my unit ever afterwards said it stood for "Meals Raccoons Eat".

If you don't make your own decisions someone else will.
If you don't make yourself happy... no one else will.

If you want to make God laugh just tell him your plans!

I hate newspapermen. They come into camp and pick up their camp rumors and print them as facts. I regard them as spies, which in truth, they are.
