The outer packaging - cardboard box. To understand the scale hereinafter attached matchbox





Inside the carton packaging foil



Punching on the packaging is not, so I had to cut it with a knife. The foil pouch is convenient that after removing the necessary components (such as breakfast), it can be hermetically sealed again slightly by holding the cut over the fire (matches, lighter) and then squeezed his



Set of products recommended for breakfast. The list still was listed, and multivitamin, but he was not. Instead, he lays another candy

From personal care products, cutlery and accessories for opening and warming food were:
Disinfectant wipes (3 pieces)



One package is just two towels: White - Hand and green - for dishes. Green has good properties and Emery dish will fit just right
21.



Four paper napkins and three spoons



Vodovetroustoychivye matches
23.



24



Razogrevatel. An empty cell, apparently once contained Cherkashov



26



Cleaner water



Inside the package is a black disinfecting tablet "Akvabriz" 5 tablets of activated charcoal and a collar



29



According to the instructions, first you need to throw in a jar "Akvabriz", after a while the activated carbon, and then, putting the package on the neck of the jar, pour water into a cup or bowl. Flask I did not have, so to show what it looks like on the example of the plastic bottle. The water in the cup filtered through something akin to wool
30.



There are some disadvantages. It is unclear why the pill "Akvabriza" only one, because a standard Army canteen one day not enough. The collar is not very tight squeezes the neck, so little can leak (water should be drained slowly). To remove the clamp is very uncomfortable, because It prevents the pin chains. Well, I have had a penknife with a thin blade and managed to pry, but with a thick tip of the bayonet-knife is not a ride.

Getting heating. Trivet heaters firmly glued to the inside of the protective film, so it has to literally tear off from it. The adhesive adheres to the fingers come into contact with printed instructions on the front side, whereby the fingers get dirty with ink. Napkins quickly erased all but unpleasant



Opener, supplied with the kit is not intended for the type of jars, which were packed products. So open conventional cans, so I had to use a knife



Now about the taste properties of the products offered for breakfast.
Beef stew



It is delicious, but the composition recalls the famous anecdote about butchering cows: ear, nose and throat, tits, pussy, tail.
Chews, by the way, normal, veins are not felt



Mashed potatoes can be poured and cold and heat, and hot water. He poured cold, poured half the mixture



After stirring turned out such a product



Puree clearly gives the powder, but quite edible. If the plate of stew dumped, even quite good turns.
Incidentally, the mixture can be used in dry form, the taste quite anything.

Biscuits standard.
Jam has not changed for several years and no claims to him there, delicious.
Condensed standard, very comfortable, in a resealable tube.
Fruit stick prunes, apricots and walnuts. Thing!



Coffee. Regular coffee bags.
Candy - the usual candy, a special thank you for it in the army things are especially appreciated.

Lunch



Buckwheat porridge with beef



Liver pate



Fruit stick (this time, apricot and walnut)



42



Dry beverage concentrate "Adaptovit»



44



Teabags



46



Biscuits, sugar, candy.

If other cereal rations are usually tightly compressed, this proved to be very loose



Since tomato sauce could use a choice, I prefer to add it in buckwheat



49



If before the tomato sauce in the rations it was quite sharp, but this time it did, "sharpened". No chili, of course, but I'm not keen I like, so eat without appetite



Pate was good for him, and no claims



Fruit stick - good.
Tea - the usual packed, but the rope is not the usual paper square, slightly uncomfortable when removing the bag from the mug.
Dry drink bad



Dinner
53.



Since all already described above, the show is only natural mackerel



Palatable fish, no complaints there



At the amateur salt / pepper

General impressions and suggestions.
A good ration. Would recommend for him to use better quality beef, tomato sauce made less sharp, put chewing gum, and another dry drink. Think about to add bacon. Replace opener, add one tablet of dry fuel.
