Back in 2014ish, they started charging us 8.35 each time they have to give us an MRE.
Was that JTR lunch meal allocation?

Couldn't you make something with metal? Can't tell exactly, but if like ours the tabs just lock the two pieces together. On the ones we have they key into the spirals in the flexible conduit.Not sure the size. I will try to get whats left out. That would be great save me 200 on the truck. Thinking about a 7/8" diameter but let me measure it.
Yes/no. It’s based on that rate but we don’t get a meal stipend. So if we go to school or something, they give us a JTR stipend, then subtract our meals from it.Was that JTR lunch meal allocation?

That can't be goodfire truck with sirens and it not even light out yet. Broccolli picker upside down in a ditch out there somewhere.
Fields of broccoli during harvest. There's a pleasant smell memory

Chopped broccoli?About 2 days after they take the flail mower to it![]()
We used too. It wasn’t until Obummer’s general changed things. And even then, it’s unit dependent.Thats weird Chris. I guess the Army does it different than the navy and Air guard. We always ate for free, it is in your guard enlistment contract. The unit gets money to feed you and you should not ever have to pay for lunch.

At least 1 growing cycle per year the rock farm was surrounded by it. There were days when choking down whatever we brought for lunch was a major chore
That odor was overwhelming to say the least 
Those are damn handy if you have the head space.Just got a call, want a gantry crane ? Yup. Need a gantry crane! Come pick it up. Cool!
