PO2 Robert Aitchison - LOL...that's one or two times more time than i can recall. I always remember that machine just sitting there taking up space on every ship i was on. It seemed it was always "down awaiting parts".

In '03 we were doing work ups for a MEU. I was AP on the ship. The ship brought aboard a chef and pastry chef from the civilian side to teach the cooks how to prepare better meals with what they had. We got spoiled fast. Normally I ate 2 meals a day. Now I was up to 3 and desert with all 3. The food and deserts were amazing!! for a week we ate like kings. Sadly one morning we lined up early for chow and found......blah. Not even a single pastry to be seen. We lost our chefs :(
I guess in reality it was good. We all started putting on weight from the amazing food.

Or c-rations, if they still exist. I wonder if the cans were painted with lead based paint because I, like many of you, (Vietnam War) ate plenty of that green paint after opening all of those hundreds and hundreds of cans with my p-38 which shredded the paint right into whatever was inside. Certainly wasn't a tasty form of seasoning.
