I am retired after 28 years in the Infantry, which I entered after ROTC at Colorado State University.   One fond memory of C-rats is that we had c-rats from WWII or Korea when we played war games in the mountains at CSU.   I know they were that old because they still had the accessory pack with the small package of four cigarettes in them.   One of the first weekends I was up in the hills, I opened a c-rat and found a pack of unfiltered Kools which must have been 20 years old.   I decided I should try one, so I put one in my mouth and put a match to it.   That was my first and last cigarette.

You still carry your "John Wayne" with you then. :) As that was the nickname given to the P38, due to you could use that little piece of stamped steel for anything, It was considered an AMERICAN version of a Swiss Army Knife...  


Wow Look at how many of us are Veterans. My hat goes off to you all.
My first taste of C-rats were in the late 70s when I was in the Civil Air Patrol in Franklin co Il.
I ate a ton of them at Ft Sill while in the Army, and later all over Germany. By then they started handing out MREs. Us "old timers" really missed the C-rats. 
Yep, some of those Mess Sergeants could do magic and a lot of the best meals I ever had came out of a mermite can. 
I am still in, still get MREs once in a while,and sill have a P-38.
