Thanks to Housil on mreinfo.com for hooking me up with these!!!
This review is a German One man, daily ration or Einmannpackung (EPa) produced in 1990. The EPAs from the 1980s to the early 1990s each had only one different main course for type 1 to type 4. The 'old' EPa consisted of square main menu ration tins, the newer EPa use a rectangular tin. In the mid-1990s, two packs of hard biscuits were still contained in the EPA in the second half of the 1990s, a pack of hard biscuits by crackers, which in turn were replaced by the rye bread.
Another difference lies in the durability, with the 'old' EPa the Bundeswehr specified a minimum shelf life of 10 years, the newer EPa and EPa-Lights are given with a durability of 3.5 years. The energy from this EPa is approximately 13.8 MJ (3,300 kcal), with a total weight of 1.6 kg. The main meals of the EPas can be consumed cold "without loss of nutritional value and substantial loss in taste, according to the leaflet". However, warming in hot water or on the Esbit cooker is recommended . The German EPA contains no utensils for heating except the matches. A fold-out Esbit cooker belongs to the personal equipment; Esbit.
