[MRCA] H-250 Modification/Repair

[Jeep Platt]

Trivia questions..1.  how many P38s were packed in each C-rat case?   2. What was, arguably, the favorite edible item in a C-rats box? (hint: its not the John Wayne bar) 3. What was included in the can with ham... as in "ham and xxx-xxx".  What year was the last contract date for genuine DLSA procured Cs?  Breck. do you still have your orange switchblade...... err.... shroud cutter?

Yes,  There wasn't much wrong with C-rations when you consider the circumstances.  I have a p-38 around here somewhere.- Al

The hang up hook was also a pain in the xss when used to hang up the handset on the radio its self.Often a plastic spoon was saved after consuming a "C" ration and it was attached using a 1 inch strip of 100 MPH tape.  The "C" ration was an excellent ration and everyone like them which I assume is the reason for replacing it. Aircrew members had a special pocket on the side of their flight suit sleeve for an extra spoon. Don't forget to save the "P38" and the AW paper.
