I did 6 months in Alaska at a frigging Army camp (And I mean camp.... rustic for a zoomie). Cold enough.
I've eaten worms, cooked and raw, but never in uniform. That was just as a commercial cook.
But I can take apart any critter that God put on earth after it is dead, and maybe cook it. And my knives are sharp enough for any spec-op to borrow. I have good knife skills, and years of experience with very sharp ones.
I have no idea what Opla is, but I might well try it. 'Splain me. ;)

Opla is Alpo, spelled backwards. During training, it was given to us as a "delicacy" of the indigenous personnel we were trying to win over.
Yeah, at times the training cadre had a sick sense of humor, but it actually wasn't bad.............
