HISTORY :
One type of ration that was issued to U.S. Service Members in the field during WW2 was the 10 in 1 Ration. This ration was broken up between four smaller boxes with the intention of feeding 10 Service Members for one day. Each box was marked HALF OF 5 RATIONS and contained half of the rations to be combined to feed 5 Service Members. Four half ration boxes would be contained in one master box for shipping.
When issued, both halves would match the Menu for the specified meal.
The 10-in-1 was introduced in mid-1943 and over 300 million rations were produced by the end of the war.
ATTENTION :
⚠️ We have several models of boxes with different markings in stock. "Menu #" or manufacturer stamping may vary. If you want a specific "Menu #" or manufacturer marking, please contact us before ordering. You will otherwise receive a box with random markings.
