"If there were four MRE boxes with one MRE left in each, all of them would be Country Captain's Chicken,"

Ha ha.

When we were transiting from Kuwait to Baghdad via the Ali al Salem airbase at 3AM, they had dozens of boxes of Country Captain's Chicken and the Pasta with Vegetables, and not much more. I had two bites, then the cheese and crackers, and I was finished.

On my last deployment outside of CONUS we had one guy that loved the Country Captain Chicken (NASTY curried chicken) but it never sold, and everybody traded their CCC with that one guy. The pasta & veg sold well where we were. I would pick it over the Black Bean Burrito anytime.

We did two hots and an MRE, so a lot of guys just skipped the MRE.

Much better to have A-rats at an Air Force Base. Any day.
