Every time I read these, I laugh but I also have the greatest respect for people in the military. The least of them is probably way more slick than most of us.

My posting of these was meant as NO dsrespect for the men and women in our great military--rather as an honor to them and the Great American Sense of Humor.

My favorite is the part of the instructions on the MRE water-based heater packet where it says on the picture of the rock (depicting how to rest the packet on an incline), "Rock or Something".
