Underway for months at a time fresh Milk was at a premium. When it was out we had this boxed jazz, from what I remember it wasn't horrible but no comparison to the real McCoy. On one WestPac I remember a working party to toss all the coke cans in storage overboard, pallets of coke started to eat through cans.
They destroyed roast Beef, might as well serve rubber chickens.
I have the same dislike for seeing a pan of Ziti now as I did for a pan of Rice back then.

I remember my friends bringing me C-rations after they got off maneuvers. Classic stuff.....rye bread, pate, smoked cod eggs (seriously, im not kidding), powdered coffee and tea, butter, jam, powdered soups and satchels of ketchup, mustard and mayo.......effing awesome
Have a nice day
