Back then I was a smoker(quit about 30 years ago) and I remember Lucky Strikes in a green circle,instead of the red one they have now.  When we had C's they were only about 10-15 years old after WW2 so the smokes believe it or not weren't stale!!!  The cocoa (circular hard powdered bars) were chewed on instead of put in hot water to make the drink.  Any one know when MRE's replaced the C's?
