Well I read 'em all, and never saw it.. so

REMF Rear Echelon Mother F... anyone who wasn't actually in the bush.
In the rear with the gear.. REMF and goldbricks...
Ham and Mothers... C-ration ham and lima beans
Balls and Guts... spaghette and meat balls
Shoe Patches... pork slices

and to all those that hated those delectible Meals Rejected by Ethiopians or was it Everyone? I wish we had them rather than the C-rats that had 1953 stamped on them in 1969.. and later.

I still say Dr Seuss was a GI that got his idea for green eggs and ham from the canned eggs and chopped ham in C-rations.. I NEVER saw one that wasn't green, hence you ate it in the dark.
