Where the Afghan war is fought hardest
NAWZAD, Afghanistan (AP) – There isn't much left of this once-violent town center that the U.S. Marines recently pacified—a couple of dusty roads, closed shops with bare mud brick stalls, small boys herding goats through a jigsaw puzzle of ruined houses and dry irrigation canals.

Sgt. Dwight T. Lang
I was just reading the newsletter of 6-29-11 and saw a number of stories on C-Rations. So I thought I would throw a couple of stories of mine in as well.
In 1963 we were on a Med cruise and it was a joint Nato excercise. About a week in the field. Most of our meals were prepared and served out of a field mess hall. At night it was supposed to be secured, but not from Marines. Many of us would infiltrate the mess area and carry off some choice goodies, like peaches etc. One morning we could see about 6 cases of something left out in the middle of a field about 300 yards from the mess area. Close inspection revealed what was left and why. 6 cases of powdered eggs. In our C-Rats at that time we found green Lucky Strikes and my own personal favorites, Chesterfields. Like how old were those rations, WWII??
