Old MREs had a lot more dehydrated stuff in them-- there were dehydrated fruit "cakes" in foil wrappers that you were supposed to reconstitute with water, but few people actually did. We pulled out the whole think and crunched down on that chalky sweetness like barbarians.
It was kind of like "astronaut ice cream" but with more life-choice regrets.

Nothing like taking signs and signage 100% literally!
Not all of my comics have some sort of deeper philosophical meaning or intention... sometimes I just do silly stuff for the sake of doing silly stuff. This was one of those times where I decided to take a sign literally.
Medic training would of course involve carrying someone out on a stretcher, which is also called a "litt...
