Here it's tough being a soldier.

Good idea. However, the problem would eventually lead to needing water to drink, because the processing of protein takes water. Gives new meaning to the adage, "There's no free lunch."

Brucie, that's "There's no PEE lunch." I can't imagine the troops eating the stuff.

Maybe Frank Herbert was right... Can a stillsuit be very far off?

I agree with Clinton...no doubt if this were to become a regular, serious problem, a filter/converter would be developed.

"an indestructible sandwich that stayed edible for up to three years."

Now I'm an Aussie, but I have heard of "British Railway Sandwiches" ...

What a great way to package creamed chipped beef on toast, otherwise known as "shit on a shingle".

"Okay, troops, open your bags of shit on a shingle and piss on them."

Well, when I was in the Infantry we'd often say, "Ah, piss on this shit!" and now they'll really be able to do so!!!

What progress!

Ya know, at first I thought this was an insult (from the thread title). Kinda like "piss up a rope." Can the same technology be applied to urine and have it run automobiles? Just curious. Random octane testing; taxes to pay per litre or gallon; quality assurance exams. Or how about watering the garden? Cows can pee a river. Will soldiers now take bovines (?) into the battle area? Have enough from one cow to make a snack for a platoon (or a light brunch). Lotta budential.

"Hello, I'm in the 'ole just next door and I've come to borrow a cuppa."

"Ding, ding. Fill 'er up, please."

Is it good to the very last drop?

"Excuse me, mate. I'm gettin' over a bad dose, and I was wondering if you'd mind . . ." .

MREs (meals ready to eat)--three lies for the price of one.

This thread could GO places.

I'm afraid to ask Bert what he was looking for when he found the link.

Man, the news you read must be different from I consider news!

I really can't see this technology going very far except for the emergency rations in liferafts, aircraft, and such.

As I've been saying, just because you can do doesn't mean that you should do it.

MRE: Mictruation, Ready to E...yuck. And what do you do about coffee? Military coffee ALREADY tastes like...well....

This is one of the funniest threads for some time. I think I just pissed myself laughing, but I've run out of sandwiches...

The main idea is that soldiers could use any type of unpure water - after all, urine is one of the most sterile liquids in the body - especially if applied to the person who passed it.

I wouldn't want to eat one of these meals if it had Budweiser or a similiar american beer poured over it though.

Geeze, Dave. You just shot down my million dollar idea on the Coors and Molson thread. Hell, back to the drawing board.

If the idea is to reduce the amount of water being carried by a soldier, then why make a meal that has to be made edible by...... adding water?

Now it is very late here and I may be a natural blonde (honestly, under this grey, it's blonde) but why does that not make sense to me?

Reduce the amount of water carried = reduce the amount of water drunk = reduce the amount of water excreted = dried pees. Or peas. Or even pease.

And yes, just to echo the above:


EEEEEEEEEEeeeeuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

I eat my peas with honey;
I've done it all my life;
They DO taste kinda funny,
But it keeps them on my knife.

Petr - My dad used to say he was "off to strain the potatoes" when he went for a pee.

No, no, no, the P is silent as in bath.

And to drag it back kicking and screaming to music - there was a lady in the British music hall who was allegedly forbidden to sing the verse of her song about gardening, which went 'I sits among me cabbages and peas'. She obligingly changed it to something else. She changed it to 'I sits among me lettuces and leeks'.
