I don't remember the soldier setting aside MREs. But even if he was, they were still rationing themselves to two a day. That means going hungry at times. I can't imagine why you are in denial over this.

Considering the minimum number of calories in a single MRE is about 1200, two MREs equal 2400 calories - perhaps a bit low for a strapping young marine involved in heavy activity, but nowhere near starvation rations, particularly in a warm climate.
