Description
Survival Food, US Military MRE, WW2 food rations
During World War Two, the U.S. Army gave soldiers a chocolate bar that was designed not to melt — and not to taste very good. German soldiers carried pea soup in a block that looked more like equipment than food.
British troops were still eating canned beef that had already fed soldiers during the First World War. And in the Pacific, some men eventually had no ration at all. They had to eat what they could find. These weren't strange foods because soldiers had strange tastes. They were strange because an army had to keep millions of men alive across oceans, deserts, jungles, and frozen battlefields. And the farther a soldier got from the kitchen, the more food had to change.
