She forgot to check the expiration date on the m&m’s and say “3 years ago, not bad”

"I got M&Ms" I was waiting for a D.S. to yell "THE F*CK YOU DID PRIVATE!" ...

“Lets get this out onto a tray. Nice.”

I remember opening an MRE in the field in 1997 and the package of M&Ms read "proud sponsor of the 92 Summer Olympics!"😕

The DS will be along soon to pick up the candy.😂

That chocolate banana nut muffin mixed with the m&ms is a gift from god🤤

We weren't even allowed to smile until we got to AIT...all m&m/skittles were confiscated as well.

Military version of a lunchable

Damn, MREs have come a long way since I was active duty, I served towards the end of the Cold War (1983-1986), we avoided our MREs unless we were starving or didn’t bring cash to the field exercise. We had guys (myself included) that would always bring Commissary bought food (cans of vienna sausages, cartons of cigarettes, ect.) and sold them in the field.

You get m&m's in your rations!!! I remember when I served (UK) our 24hr rations packs consisted of tea, tea, tea ,milk, sugar, sugar, tea and tea. For deserts it was tea. And the lads always took spare tea incase we ran out. 🇬🇧

She's Happy. I'm glad Soldier. Enjoy 😊

I thank All those who served in the military and may God continue to bless you and your loved ones

For all the new soldiers out there. Here's a blast from the past. Called a Ranger Cookie. Made from the coffee creamer and sugar packets. Make a small packet from aluminum foil. Mix the sugar and coffee creamer together inside the aluminum package. Seal all four sides. Cook on a fire to melt the sugar and creamer together. It will harden as it cools. Tastes like English toffee candy.

Im definetly joining the army because im gonna get free mnm

The cappuccino one is fire in the field not gonna lie. Pour it, seal it and leave it out in the sun to get hot. That ish hits different

Dude I loved how the drill sergeants said nah that’s too gourmet for you lol ftr when I was in Afghanistan those skittles hit different 😂

*if you’ve served before… You know those Muffin tops and M&M’s are gods sent* 🇺🇸🤙🏽

My dad served during the Korean War, C-rations and K-rations left over from WW2 was what he & his fellow marines could expect. I remember he had taken us to an Army/Navy surplus store, some C-rations were among what he bought. He warned us that under no circumstance were we to open them, said he'd know by the smell if we did. I couldn't guess why he bought them unless it was to remind him he'd had worse than anything mom burned for dinner.

Hooah! Army Strong 💪 thank y’all for your service 🫡🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

Now she needs to add " let's get this out onto a tray"

Giving trainees phones was the worst thing the army has ever done

Those desserts in these MRE's ain't no joke, they straight fire 🔥

“Lets get this out onto a tray, nice”

If I had my way our military would get steak for breakfast, lunch and dinner! USA, USA, USA!

I remember the time the army said they were going to take care of me medically when I got injured in the war but then didnt, at least I got those m&m's tho

When I was a reservist I'd bring home boxes of MRE's my wife was pregnant and discovered there was such a thing as dried cranberries and had such a craving that when I came from work I found her happily eating through six packets of dried cranberries after she had raided all the boxes and opened all the MREs

Had this in the USMC 20 years ago....still the greatest food!

I came back to see you again, God bless you young lady

My favorite part of menu #3 is definitely the small bottle of Tabasco. Makes any cold bland meal have a punch of flavor. Never really had time for the heating packets unless you used it to heat up a bag of coffee while you eat.

Muffin tops, she’ll have one within a year at her first duty station.

I remember my uncle showing me what an MRE was for him in the jungles of Vietnam War...they were in small round green cans crackers & jelly and you had to open them with a P-38 worlds smallest can opener...!!! 💯😎🥰🤙🏽

I was homeless for 4 1/2 years. Some food kitchens gave out MRES after serving the meal thank God they did most days that was all I had to eat. I made 1 MRE last 24 hrs. Most of the MREs were tasteless but when that all you have to eat it's better than starving. From someone who had nothing to eat most days. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU for donating them because without them I would have starved to death. So if possible please if you can find a way please donate as much MRE s or emergency food boxes to homeless shelters. These can save lives especially during the winter season when there are so many people who are struggling to find enough to eat hot/warm food.

We're on the verge of WW3 but thank God we got M&Ms in our ravioli MREs

Private fuzzy doing MRE tutorial. Stay SHARP

Few things I respect more than the military...thank you all for your service and God bless you all🫡❤️

Anything but the ‘5 fingers of death’ 😂

We didn't get in m&M's back when I was in the army. You got it made girl😅

While we're here at home complaining about this and that, our men and women in the military are out there eating that and smiling and serving our country! Thanks to ALL of our men and women who put their lives on the front line for us! I love you all and I appreciate you!! GOD bless each one of you!!!

We were eating C’s from the 70’s and I was in 80-86. MRE’s where an adventure.

Damn ROTC making the Army look like kindergarten

Much better than they use to be. Dad was in ww11 he got spilt peas and ginger snaps , from France to Germany.

I had 2 buddies in the reserves that would save the bread from their MREs for me when they came back to the dorm from being in the field. I absolutely loved it and they thought I was nuts for eating it. It wasn’t till years later that they told me no one ate the bread because it constipates you and that’s why they were always given laxatives when coming back in from the field. I don’t know if it’s true but it sure explained some things.

That's pretty good we needed that 50 years ago

I use to love mixing creamer and sugar. Tastes like a sugar cookie. My favorite was always chili mac. And you mix that cheese in there. Maannnn..

I'm an old American combat Vet, (U.S. Army 505th PIR 82nd Airborne Division). I just want to say that this young Lady really shows that women belong. You can see that she's disciplined, and self-confident. She also displays a personality and energy that lets everyone know that she can get the Job, or mission, done, and done well! She's also a very pretty Lady. God Bless Her and All the other women and men serving our Country.

USMC 84-88 We had dehydrated Pork Briquettes, both dehydrated Peaches & Strawberries, Ham & Chicken Loaf & Chicken a la King ! The only Beverages were Instant Coffee & Coacoa Powder.

People wildin with the hate, this is uploaded from the USArmy account and people are on here acting like a trainee recorded the video and not a PAO.

Hope you are having a good time with your friends. Stay army strong!

One of my faves, coming out like stiff bricks not so much.😂

all my fellow military out there knows , king be SERVIN

I Love ,I Am Joining You Guys Sooner than later ...Military Forces Always

Nobody says Beef Stew! IT’S THE BEST DAMNIT! 🤣🙏🏾

Looks great I'll be tasting some of that real soon. I just enlisted in the army love you guys hang In there. 💜

I'm in Army AIT now in Fort Lost In The Woods, and I got out of basic training a few days ago. The pork sausage patty MRE is my favorite MRE I've ever had while I was in basic training.

When I was in elementary my principal was in the national guard and for veterans day she brought MREs

I’d be saving all the mnms I get for later trades

I think she'd be happy with whatever she got, The girl is a credit to her parents 👏

Thank y’all for keeping us safe my dad was in the army he had to go to Afghanistan his name is Jacob blaylock

I loved ths beef ravioli mre it was always the best one in basic could never go wrong with it it just hit all the time

That was one of the best MRE’s back when I served as well lol

russian draftees seen this crying in the trenches 😭

Thanks for serving our country

When muffin top came up i just realized how similar school food is to MRE like wtf

Some things never change

The army really has become a fun, smiling camp for college kids. It's really insane.

Thise look better than what I had. In basic we had C rations. Every time I deployed we had the old MREs with out the heater, the chicken and rice came with real bone shards, and there was a fight for the beef stew. The Tabasco sauce was always dried up the chicklets were concrete and you could write home on the napkins and toilet tissue.

i remembered in 2002 many U.S. Marines came here to Clark Air Base Philippines. they gave me MRE. 🇵🇭😎🇵🇭

I don't need candy, I need calcium and water on battlefield!!!

Nah bro that mre gives me the worst stomach aches

I'm so glad when I served, my unit couldn't of served along side women. Actually they couldn't serve anywhere near us they were still "the WACs." Such a long time ago.

I went to fort Moore with Boy Scouts troop 893 for the whole spring break, and every lunch we had MRE’s and I got the beef taco filling every time!

This is the exact MRE I’ve ate. Giving quite a throwback.

Everyone in the army looks too goddamn happy

That’s a great survival kit. I remember for #HurricaneKatrina we had to eat them for #sevendays in the #Superdome

I remember opening one in 1985, there was a trading card that welcomed New Mexico into the union!

If you mix 1 of each of the different beverage powders in 1 big water bottle it tastes likes skittles 👌🏻

Oh yeah, that’s how you recruit.

I hope that trainee who’s only had two MREs isn’t being ask what the best MRE is.

The best MRE’s when I was in the Army (89’-92’) and during Desert Storm were Tuna with Noodles and Spaghetti because they both had M&M’s, but if you were lucky you’d get snickers or Kit Kat.

Our Drill Sergeants told us if they see us even look at our candy that they will "Skull f**k the sugar right out of us." Nowadays you got PVTs making TikToks and they get their phones in basic. I miss the old Army.

Menu 18 (meatballs and marinara sauce) is the goat

I was not expecting this to be legit for some reason. This is a solid answer. That Snack bread kinda sucks, but with these meal, is not the worst, which is a huge compliment. You can't trade a wheat snack bread for anything short of a guard shift.

Beef ravioli MRE was delicious! I was in JROTC in high school, come from a long line of service men and women! I wanted to be the first to join the USCG! But was denied at 18 due to my mental health problems, I’m now 30 and still wanting to join

That happiness will go away after eating those a few years. I see no rank so must be pvt😢

Then they find out about the navy firsthand and she begins reevaluating her life choices. Service people know what I'm talking.😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thank you for your service

Thank u for your service!!!

During BCT, I was in "not so relaxin" Fort Jackson, and despite not got going on sick call 1 day, I came down with pneumonia during last week of cycle and had 105⁰ fever, that could cause coma. DS gave me sh*t when I asked to see nurse. When "battles" rallied by me, I got admitted to the post hospital. While I was delirious before seeing doctor, their version of lunch for TRADOC joes was literally opening a storage closet that housed maybe thousand MREs. I didn't eat one cause so sick. But to answer video, cheese ravioli was my favorite. Fun fact: years later that DS got busted down to E-1 and chaptered out due to egregious SHARP violation. Go figure?

Our adversaries are shaking in their boots

Must be nice having all that in your MRE’s. Much better than my days….

I served in the Air Force and remember the transition from CRATs to KRATs ( now MREs ). All there was way back then was dehydrated beef patties that looked like turds .

I never got my phone in basic but these trainees are soo lucky

Great smile 😅

C-ratios: Pound cake, frank and beans, peaches. The 4pack of cigarettes, matches, 1 serving size can of peanut, jam or cheese, toilet paper, chewing gum, salt, sugar, instant coffee and cream substitute. I saw a few MRE's and I liked the spaghetti.

Had the EXACT same one back when I first joined in 2001.

I mean, its sad to watch it but 1000x better than any other Army MRE...

i cannot wait to Join !!!!!!!!!!!

Have a great weekend and enjoy the coffee and have a great weekend and thanks

The Army today looks softer than wet bread. And that’s saying a lot, because even when I was in it was not that hard.

You should be lucky that you even get the candy private. Normally I would say that after the p a o stopped rolling... The drill sergeant would come by and be like give me that s***. However it's today's Army I'm sure they get to heat up their MREs too.
