Were the blueberry pancakes in Mountain phase of Ranger School actually that good? Or were we just that hungry?

Former RI
They were always "that good"
But it maybe the nostalgia so who can ever really know lol

Pancakes? We din't eat no steenkin' pancakes!

Are there any Ranger School graduates out there that went to Ranger School in 1969 that can verify for me that we had Blueberry Pancakes in the Mountain Phase? I don't remember it but that doesn't mean we didn't have them. I am trying to find out when this all began.

Oh yes, they were that good

I think they were way better than the French toast in florida

Ha! I think they were actually that good, but what I remember most is how I was able to clear my entire tray before patrols started, but at the midway point I could barely eat half the food they gave us.

We were that hungry!

At the time, late January early Feb
'88, they were so good that they were used as currency to bet on the Super Bowl. The RIs made sure the winner sat and ate every last one too. That's my best memory of them besides dumping sugar on the syrup for extra "energy".

Faint memories of the hyped blueberry pancakes, but fond memories of the Florida "Super Supper". Most of us ate so much that we got sick - but it didn't take much to fill our shrunken stomachs. Do they even have that end-of-course event anymore?

I was so hungry I could eat the chrome off a Buick. So I am not a good judge of the pancakes.

As a side note, I think I set the record for weight loss in 1973. I went in a heafty 260 pounds guard and came out at 150 pounds. My coach was pi$$ed when I showed up for my first practice and almost threw me off the team....thank goodness they needed a running back.
