U.S. Army reviews rations

Nearly five years after the Meal, Cold Weather (MCW) and Food Packet, Long Range Patrol (LRP) merged into a single product, the subsequent 12 menus are now being revised.
Food technologists at the Natick Soldier Center's Combat Feeding Directorate held their first field evaluation in a decade of current and new menu items under consideration with Soldiers from the 51st Infantry in Darmstadt, Germany.
