Agree! I was a Mud Puppy for 30 yrs. Who remembers the T-Rations too?! I was introduced to them during the Gulf War way back then...

I know it's weird, but one of my fondest memories of military life was eating a warm breakfast in the field (scrambled eggs, hash browns, chipped beef, etc) and then enjoying a cigarette. Can't stand cigarettes now, but back then after breakfast in the field they were perfect.

^Ha, before my time since I joined in the mid-80s, but research online says they had 4 per small pack (Lucky Strike?).

After having to sleep in mine for SIX WEEKS after rotator-cuff surgery, I didn't want to sit in the chair ever again! Then a about two weeks after getting back into bed, I was back in the chair for a week or so after a CABG surgery! We got memory foam and the "thigh" part of the chair had the foam bunch up, making "closing" the chair impossible. I had to rip out the backing and pull the foam out. I still need to try and find someone to fix it. We only had the chair about 5 years when this happened. I've since sworn-off La-Z-Boy.

I don’t like overstuffed arms and it looks like maybe you don’t either. Even 15 years ago it was hard to find arms that weren’t overstuffed and I shopped really hard to find a recliner without them. It looks like your recliner doesn’t have them either.

And yeah, the arms aren’t overstuffed; they’re quite firm actually, and that’s just the way I like them. |

The ham & Lima beans were the worst of the group. The Lima beans were stringy. We usually fed it to the nearest dog. Our nickname for Ham & Lima beans was, "Ham & Motherfuckers." Some of the other meals weren't too bad if you had a way of heating them up, particularly the spaghetti. The peanut butter was a bit weird as the oil separated from the peanut paste. Difficult to stir back together. At least the included 4 cigarettes were okay. The included toilet paper was more like newspaper, but without the news. Somewhere in the case you could find a few P-38's.
