When I went through my Military Police Basic Course/BOLC in 1997 come up we had 2 Saudi Arabian officers in our course and we had to give them kosher food because The meals rejected by Ethiopians had pork in it. LOL. We had a Salvadorian officer who fought the Civil War and he was assigned to me because I speak Spanish. The 2 Saudi Arabian officers were lazy as F. The salvadorian 1st lieutenant went on our road marches and was in shape.

SFC David Reid, M.S, PHR, SHRM-CP, DTM - I felt embarrased and having evil joy knowing these Officers ate Jewish prepared meals. i just saw them in a box or on a table. I was not the 2LT who handed it to them. I guess the Instructor/Captain in charge gave it to them. I was not there to see their reaction. We were in the field so they could not drive our HMMWV to Anniston and go to a Kabob Arab food location. SPC Gary C. SFC David Reid, M.S, PHR, SHRM-CP, DTM Lt Col Charlie Brown A1C Medrick "Rick" DeVaney Maj Robert Thornton This was in 1997 so I only have some memories of my training. I did not recall being there when it was handed to them.

OKAY, Now Seriously....I Believe I Had "C Rations" Once Or Twice, But Not Sure. But I DO Recall They're Not Being Bad At All; And The Cigarettes, Although Decades Old, Were Quite Fresh & Had Better Taste Than The Newer Ones Purchased Fromm The BX...
I Believe They Were Either Camels Or Pall Mall.

The peanut butter and the rock hard crackers were the only thing that were edible without Tabasco sauce, IMHO.

Maj Robert Thornton - I went through PLDC field exercise and ate nothing but the crackers & peanut butter or the cheese

SGT (Join to see) - .....Perhaps The Peanut Butter Needed To Be Stirred To Blend In The Oils & Smooth It Out.. If All They Had To Stir It With Was A Deck Of Cards, It Was Probably Destroyed By a Trump. ...Definitely Not All Heart.
