We had a great set of cooks in our unit. They once sourced a large hog and spent the day tending a spit, slowly roasting it for us after we came back from a 7day Recce patrol, existing on LRRP rations. Gaunt/ filthy & exhausted it was a treat Ive never forgotten and appreciate the warm memory amid so many colder ones.

Imagine cooking under fire—literally. I can't even handle a dinner party!

I was an Army cook… and cooking in the field is crazy difficult. Couldn’t imagine doing it while being shot at. MRE’s are a cooks best friend.
