Proudly carried one in Germany 1990-92. In Schweinfurt, they skimped out during the week so they could do Surf and Turf lunch on Friday. The line went on forever. Steak and crab/lobster/shrimp for $1.90.

Yes it sure does. That card was magic especially the eggs and bacon and a cup of coffee.

Yes, it sure does. We didn't need to show it since we were on a Nike Hercules site for a few years and knew each other, but it was used later in career when we went to a school or an actual post.

SSgt (Join to see), I use mine almost every day. It has green ink now instead of black. Other than that, it hasn't changed.

Most definitely. Had one from 73-76, stationed in Germany. Turned it in when I got seperate rations when promoted to Sergeant. Now thats a "Throw-back Post!"

Certainly, had one from 1972 until around 1975, when I was authorized separate rations. If you had one of these you probably remember the Army mess halls back then served Liver 3 times a week. Twice during lunch and once for dinner. And I loved the way the cooks made it. Grilled and smothered with onions

I was issued a meal card early in my career, and had to show it every time I signed into the mess hall for a meal.
