Subject: RE: Lime Jello Salad.
Anybody ever been on Class III rations? Everything comes from a can.

We had that for a couple of months when I was in Viet Nam. We had some sort of mystry meat. A sort of white meat. With white gravy they called it turkey. With brown, pork. Still tasted the same.

Then there was the roast beef, mashed potatoes, peas, and grape cool-aid. I think we had that twice a day for a few months too.

Canned hot dogs. Yummmm, Brings back memorys. The Army had three deserts. Cherry pie, ice cream and spice cake. Let me tell you about the spice cake. I once put a blasing cap inside a piece on night. We waited untill there were three or four rats eating the cake. BOOOM the cake shattered and killed every rat. YesSir, the spice cake did a few uses. Made great wheel chocks for a Duce- and-a-half too.

I still can't drink grape cool-aid.
