1939 Emergency Air Corps Ration US Pilot Survival MRE Review
Рет қаралды 312,449
19 күн бұрынFind out what's inside this rare, mysterious, and expensive ration never before filmed. Used by pilots, and issued in back pad kits during WW2, it evolved into the Parachute Ration, and then Emergency Parachute Ration, which eventually becomes Food Packet Survival General Purpose. A pioneering and historical survival ration. The budget to this video was a tad high, but it was certainly worth the exclusive look.
Up next for vintage US Survival equipment is the E-17 Pilot Survival Kit.
I'm also releasing a never before filmed K ration prototype soon - stay tuned.

Whether foreign food or kit on the wing, Steve he comes and does his thing. Opening up a box in a careful display we get those bits out onto a tray. A pensieve word here and there, Steve goes about his work with care. "Nice" he says as he begins, the audience across the world often grins, seeing him eat and test and taste the products others long laid to waste. Whether in a can or condensed or dried, the Type 2 coffee or fatty bacon rinds, fruit preserves long past their best and cool trinkets from East and West, the clock winds back before our eyes. In each package a new surprise. Now the presentation comes to an end, Steve gives his thanks and bids his adieu. Thankyou, mate, for all you do!

Wow, the poem that comes on the fishing kit is incredible. It's educational, inspiring for the soldier, has parts to talk to the others about or dwell on alone. A message from home in a hard time. I'm surprised we don't see more poetry on emergency rations like this.

@chrismaverick9828 16 күн бұрын
It's not a bad idea. Just a few moments worth of print that might give a downed pilot a moment of comfort or a chuckle in what is likely a very bad time. It costs almost nothing and if it has even a chance of helping, then why not?

@@Steve1989MRE Good to see you. Hope one day you manage to find a WW2 Mountain Ration and a WW2 Jungle Ration. They were issued to soldiers from 1942 to 1943 until they were replaced by the K-ration(though they did continued to be issued until 1944). The J-ration actually had two variations-the first one was lighter in weight and had higher quality meats like salted beef which was later replaced by heavier and cheaper canned meat like spam, tinned beef and pork loaf. Both of those rations are incredible rare and hard to find, few photos of them even exist.
