That’s a great repro!! Kudos!

I have several MRE’s I think from late 1980’s… I save the matches, wet-nap (still moist!) and maybe give crackers to birds.. they may not eat it. They have the same spoon, some decaf coffee, and a apple strudel cake thingie

Wow! A tab, and a key... you are not messing around. Excellent work.

Big visual difference with the added key and seam. Pretty much perfect ! 🙂

It’s funny that the lemon juice was called battery acid and soldiers hated it and one guy said that 6 out of the rest of the men in his division and there are a few thousand people in a division

Definitely makes MREs look like Thanksgiving dinner

All edible I suppose, that's dedication to the craft. Nice, nice indeed.

Definitely a reproduction…👎

Nice repro, very accurate. I have original k's but my ww2 cans are mostly repro too

It was always better with Tabasco 😅😊

If you open the can from the bottom, you can still have a nice display piece.

You've been running through your B units here lately! Excellent stuff man. Thank you

Well done repro!

Bolton biscuits.... where is the wad of TP?

Shelby P-38 got mine!

Hey I was wondering. Rations that come with coffee, how did fighters heat the water in their mess cans up? Did they rely on field kitchens for hot water or did they heat water up in the field? I'm assuming field kitchens.

Is there a museum or internet site where we can view large-sized pictures? Any ration books, manuals, or other information would be helpful and appreciated.

Amazing how good that still looks. I wouldn't eat it for less than $1k but still.

Very cool!!!

Dehydrated onions and chilli seasoning... they should bring those back in MRE'S ! 🙂

No matches?

That was is great condition! Thanks or opening and sharing!

Very cool friend. Been A while since I saw one of these opened. It looks remarkedly well preserved. Nice. Peace, John.

Excellent review, surprised to see it in such decent condition

These will be listed on our Etsy and eBay shops in the next couple weeks, replacing our older style reusable cans!

Wow this is awesome! Love the reusable can, looks like it’s sealed even though you can just pop the lid right off!

Looks like reproduction

Wow

Heck yeah 👍 great stuff!

Hero Rations makes reusable metal cans for B and M units from WW2. Original cans were single use and made with a twist key opening which is no longer made. Unlike other C Rations, these cans are custom made in size to be 3x3.5” just like originals. Reusability and correct size and stamping and contents = perfect for reenactors and living historians

L.S.M.F.T. LUCKY STRIKES MEANS FINE TOBACCO. SO ROUND , SO FIRM , SO FULLY PACKED , SO EASY ON THE DRAW. IT'S A FINE SMOKE.

bros in his 1900

awsome

Seeing it say supper is surreal. I ate alot of MREs when i was in Iraq and i honestly love them. There is always a few that suck but its very few. That was 2004 they have even better ones now. I was lucky enough as a kid to get a C-rat from a neighbor who was a soldier. Not good, it was some tuna fish soup or some shit lol. Long time ago, i know i cooked it wrong. That was probably 1994

Good ol crusty biscuits 😋 lol

It's even got a couple of Chesterfield cigarettes with it 👍💯

My uncles called K rations Kennel Rations.

Very cool. Nicely packaged. Peace, John.

Very cool friend. I need to find one of these repros. Do you still produce them? Peace, John.

Amazing value😂

This is pretty cool and underrated as frick (I don't want to be demonetized)

Not 100% sure but I think the chocolate may have been repackaged. I don't recall too much plastic wrap packaging in the 1940s. This is why the cardboard packaging has the wax coating, to try to keep air out.

Those were in pretty good condition for their age!

"In case you wanted to see" YES! Definitely haha. Thanks for the video

Very cool!! I thought they would be worse than that!!! Thanks for sharing

Brave man! I have a pile of mci but have yet to open one

That was a big hiss!! The can looked to be in great condition! Thanks for sharing!

Nice hiss... 😁

No sugar?

Better to be left unopened in that condition. Ya never know til you get it opened though, ha.
