Field Food: Combat Ration for the SAF Man
-
hmmm not sure eaten once only tastes greatOriginally posted by deathscythe99:Ehm....fruit bars?
-
LOL! where got field camp give out fresh ration 1.Originally posted by wuming78:wah. din touch the combat ration? how long was your field camp? and was fresh ration catered?
-
The worst ones would be the rations with rice. Pineapple rice, curry rice, whatever... they all don't taste good at all. The problem is that The rice crystallises and becomes hard.
The only rice I would take in combat rations would be glutinous rice. Much more edible than normal rice. The pasta dishes are, for the most part, not too bad.
Still, I usually don't take any of the main menus at all. I would just survive on the fruit bars, dog biscuits and my own Uncle Toby's bars. -
Did your instructors not put a stop to your self-destructive tendencies?Originally posted by Littlemouse:hoho combat rations, i jus came back from my field camp as of today. Combat rations i think most ppl in my coy didnt touch anything. 1st meal was bad enough. Most of us jus pretty much survived on 2 biscuits and a whole lot of water per meal. -

Cos when they dun have enough budget set aside for outfield with combat rations they use fresh rations instead.Originally posted by Gordonator:then how come i don't have?
My Ex SPADE was done with fresh rations
-
the only fresh ration i have for my field camp is Malaria pills.
-
Is that even fresh?Originally posted by Gordonator:the only fresh ration i have for my field camp is Malaria pills. -
to me the best fruitbar is the blueberry-apple bar
-
i prefer the honey apricot...
and i find it funny when my friends rush like barbarians for a certain menu...i think its M menu 3...for goodnessake's its already called COMBAT rations, u shouldn't be expecting civilian standard food. I dont think they got time to shout out "eh who here got menu 3 wanna change?" in wartime.
But i swear give me combat rations, even the duck rice, over 39 SCE or 1 TPT Bn cookhouses any day man. -
Combat rations taste awful! Cookhouse food oso! Canteen food is the best!

ROC still cook maggie mee ?? ROC is the land of NINJA VANS !!! we only took the drinks and fruit bars. The main course was settled when we spotted ninja vans. Ji Pa, tian bu la, glutonious rice with saugage, seow ba zhang , yummy yummyOriginally posted by wuming78:i was satisfied when i was able to cook maggie mee in peace in the night at ROC with my good fren.
In thailand, they have their equalivent of ninja van, its the ninja pickup. They practically follow us everywhere. Then they fried their instant mee, add in egg and vege, ta bao into white foam box, 20 Baht. top it off with a can of coke 20 baht in thailand's weather in feb/march. And the best deal is, the little boy will carry a few packets and climb to our deployment ground, to exactly where my camofledged trench was.Excellent . Once my pc told me to deploy my men on a hill to defend the junction it controls while the rest of the platoon occupy other hills. And he comms me asking where am I, he cannot find me. I told him, sir see the ninja pick up? follow the thai boy, i had ordered mee and drinks for my men. He will be delivering to me soon . some of us gave those boys our CR. they were so happy. haha... guess its a win win situation huh..
once i was touched by the gesture of some thais. we were deployed near some farm land. Then there was this shack bulit from those bamboos. No bigger than a HDB room. The farmer offered me some rice and veges despite he might not have enough for his family though. I politely decline, and offer him all my combat rations. everything including the biscuits, pocari etc.HIs boy was happy when the father gave him the fruit bars. I like the way the thais live. They are really nice people and sincere. -
