Ahh, I am reminded of a time I spent in South Korea (I believe this was before Nick became a first sergeant), a young GI out on FTX could do a little searching throughout the day and find the Ajima (Old Lady) practitioners of the art of Shin Ramyun following the vast groups of soldiers in the field. They were more than willing to share their knowledge of this art but for the small price of 1 US issued Meal, Ready to Eat, complete and unopened. The sharing of this Shin Ramyun art so invigorated them that they would also throw in a moon pie and coke with this shared knowledge. On, extremely lucky days, if the conditions were right, a fried egg would also top (no pun intended towards the renowned first sergeant) things off.
