      More like 1982. That was back in the day when some pos industrial contractor lobbyists were forcing the govt to buy shat stuff and equipment. Issued uniform items that were not only not serviceable, but nobody could professionally wear them and other shat equipment. They won't let the Military personnel have a voice, because if we did, we would grab those oral copulators and force them to eat MRE's for 3 months straight on what they decide to make. Good news, it did improve over the years. During that last last war, Generals with a pair kicked the contractors in the junk.

    So funny you mention the separate wheat bread cases. When I was a kid (7 or 8 in about '99) my Uncle a Marine, came by the house one day when I was fishing and said he had brought me something. He walked out back to the dock and set a big brown box down and told me to open it. It was literally full of those dark brown vac packs with a piece of wheat bread inside. Used that bread all summer, little pieces balled up on a hook to catch perch and brim, or just taking a few pouches ripping them up and throwing the bread in the water to get the fish biting. I can think back now at 27 and still smell that wheat bread. Memories Steve, memories. Thanks Uncle Rich.

    I really enjoyed that short backroom tour at the end. Gives you an idea about how serious Steve takes MRE collection and also the historical development of the MREs in general. I know it's obvious from his enthusiasm and how well informed he is, whenever he opens a ration and talks about it during videos, but it shines a more direct light on that fact, in my opinion.
