Vietnam Recipe: “Wolfhound Stew” Those days helmets were made of steel known affectionately as a steel pot, rather than the current Kevlar edition. Use the steel pot as the cooking vessel; pour in the contents of various “entré” C Ration cans: turkey loaf, beans & franks, meat loaf; avoiding if your smart, the ham & lima beans with its big globular fat cluster. Combine in and stir; be creative in choosing a stirring tool; using as a heat fuel source chunks of C4 from a Claymore mine. Heat, stir and enjoy.
Where's the recipe for pie?! :) I love the Doughboy poem "Home is Where the Pie Is": http://behindtheirlines.blogspot.com/2016/03/battling-homesickness.html
