      Super, thanks. My first thought for a comment was to ask for that.
      On some channel last year I watched test of field rations from many different NATO countries, it was so interesting, but your variant with two nations sharing their rations was even more interesting. Cheers from Denmark.
      Fun fact:
      In the late 1980s we had a Danish comedian who for the fun of it ran for parliament on various "ridiculous" issues like "eternal tailwind on the cycle paths" etc., and "Nutella in Danish soldier's field rations". As he explained "Nutella could come in handy as facial camouflage - though only if the wind was bearing away from the enemy." He eventually got elected into parliament and raised this proposition, and eventually got parliament to pass a decree demanding Nutella in all Danish field rations. It became wildly popular with most soldiers. I don't know whether Nutella is still part of our field rations, neither if any soldier successfully used it as camouflage.

      I can understand why it's so awkward. So... unless Polish rank insignias wildly differ from US and other NATO ones... Stars indicate general. Bartek here has two of them.
      So, I'm pretty sure that Mirella is either a junior officer or an NCO, was told by her command staff "hey, you're gonna do a PR thing today. It's easy, you're going to eat MRE's with a Polish ally in a field in front of some armor, it'll be great;" Then the shows up and sees that her counterpart is a freakin' Lieutenanant General (or some such equivalent - again, perhaps two stars means something different for Poland, this guy does look pretty young.) He is likely the general in charge of their own PR arm, and just decided to use himself.

      Romania suffered a lot as well after WWII. After Germany we were the second country to pay war compensation to Russia.
      Until 1960, everything that Romania produced went to Russia, like really everything. Even the cows from paysans barn. My grand ma told me they they ate the potatoes back and soup of oat, that means oat with some hot water, not a porridge though, because they didn't have so much oat. It was terrible...
      Not to mention that in the WWI, Romania sent its treasury to Russia, thinking that it would be safe there (hundred of tones of gold) and they never sent it back to us.

      In my part of Romania, at least among older generations, that's almost religion. Throwing away food is a major sin. I had it drilled into me that no matter how much food is on my plate, I absolutely have to eat it all and leave nothing behind. I was taught that it would rain next day if I don't leave my plate nearly clean on the table.

      Probably because the Polish one is made by Poles, where as Romania just get it from Estonia or Netherlands as its made by Rationtech. Barely anything is made in Romania for our Military, they just buy from our "allies" instead of opening facilities to manufacture and create jobs at home.

    Poland has 2 ration types - 24 hour with 3 meals (like the one in the video), and more portable 1 meal + rations with a chemical heater like the Romanian one. Each has its own benefits (i.e. you cannot boil water with a chemical heater which sometimes must be done).

  • @EpicThe112
    @EpicThe112 2 місяці тому +13

    I think the Romanian way of heating their food is more efficient, especially in bad weather conditions. The Polish one would still be trying to start the fire meanwhile a Romanian soldier would already have finished eating

    • @krzysztof4802
      @krzysztof4802 Місяць тому

      not really. both are based on a chemical heating process and both are quick enough. simply one dish is in an aluminum bag and the other in an aluminum can and it is easy to heat them up with a low-fire tablet... basically the same. personally I would probably prefer goulash from a can ;p
