      My Submarine back in the early 80s won the Coveted Navy "Ney" Award 2 years in a row. And our cooks were mostly Filipinos. They were really good with what they did. Menu items you could only wish for today. And if your lucky maybe find something similar in Manila or those areas of the Orient. And if you knew them "cooks" very well you could easily learn another Language. More than happy to teach ya. It takes all kinds of exceptional peeps to be a Submariner. God Bless Submariners.

    I was in the royal navy at a very young age in the 70s and spent years on HMS TIGER C20 a UK Helicopter cruiser with 4 sea king helicopters and 925 ratings and I have to say the meals we were given right around the world twice on Tiger were absolutely FABULOUS with so many choices each dinner time and way back then it was top class food, just unbelievably awesome. Memories of fresh baked bread EVERY morning cruising around the far east and south Pacific, had absolutely ZERO complaints with the food we received and the cooks went above and beyond to ensure we always had good choice and plenty of it.

    I joined the ARMY in 74 (the yr we "officially" pulled out of Vietnam) when the Military still had stockpiles of the old "C" rations (canned rations) even though the Marines had already gone to MRE's (freeze dried meals). The C Rations were pretty old and nasty and some were dated from over a decade earlier. They came w/ a pack of 3 cigarettes that I would trade for an upgrade in my main course since I didn't smoke.
    One time we were out on a very large "Red vs Blue" combat practice mission involving 2 Brigades. Out on patrol one nite we were ambushed by the other team where myself and 3 others managed to "hide in plain sight" among the chaos and were able to watch our comrades' as they were taken away. We followed them in the dark, managed to release them around 3am and then stole their Commanders Jeep from beside his tent and drove back to base camp in an Enemy Jeep.
    The Bonus was that the Commander had brought in some Fresh Eggs and Breakfast meats in that Jeep that he had planned on surprising his troops w/ the next mourning. We ate like Kings the following day on the enemy's groceries and were rewarded for our escape, release of our comrades and providing a Breakfast that didn't come in a can. Good Times ! I imagine those Mariners are fed pretty well, especially the Submarine variety.

      I think we had the same C Rations for emergencies on the Sub I was on. They were still good 10 years after expiration. The pound cake tasted good. The escape trunk "multi man" flotation device container had 2 packs of "Lucky Strike" unfiltered shorts in its inventory. Times can get rough on a Submarine believe you me. Cigs after a few months out could cost you a buck a piece back in the early 80s. And they only cost 4 Bux a Carton when you passed 12 miles going out. The cigs if you bought them beforehand were only available past that distance. If you didn't buy enough, well it sucks to be you. Sailors didn't make much 40 years ago folks. I made a few additional bucks though. Only Cash or something to barter was acceptable payment. NO CREDIT. God Bless Submariners.

I knew this wasn't gonna be good when he responded .... 2 what? And it went down hill from there. I knew ahead of time there had to be some sort of issue since when we arrived at that unit we were ordered that we would take at least one meal a day in the mass hall. Ultimately that day I got a dried piece of ham, Some greasy hash browns, A piece of bread and lukewarm coffee. Nothing else was Available except the typical bug juice, Not even milk. After that I went in once a day to sign the meal roster, And then went to the snack bar to eat.

      In a blink of an eye a Submariners life and his crew members could be over. The submarine is a very complex and an extremely dangerous environment to work/sleep or relax in. Everyone must always be laser focused or you all may die. The only food on the CSS Hunley (if that's what you are referring to) if those men were "lucky" was uncooked corn on the cob. Perhaps some hard tack. Maybe even some deer jerky. I wouldn't say that was fine candle light dining by any stretch. They had candles in use but eventually they got extinguished. In the dark cold damp tube now with mother nature clearly at the reins. Brave Men, no doubt. Submarines have come a long way since the days of old. Death is always gripping at your collar if anyone gets complacent. If you don't have the "eye of the tiger", you certainly don't need to be there. You may become a hazard to the rest. Everyone knows their limits, don't even try to wing it. That's why it's a young mans sport and its very exciting for those who choose and can handle that difficult occupation. I doubt even Mike Rowe could actually handle it for a week. Just climbing down the vertical hatch would tighten his sphincter. God Bless Submariners.@brown3525

      The Navy is taught recipes from multiple cultures because they need to use local produce for wherever they are generally. The other branches are usually based off a set rotating menu. When I was in training the navy always looked like they had better food because they were training to learn far more recipes

      Though enlisting into military service is a serious commitment. Military life is a much different experience than civillian life. The regimentation and general culture is way different, not to mention the fact that personal dynamics are way different and can prove to be a culture shock.

    I was with the 75th BDE MLRS way back in the day. I remember when that unit got a traveling mess tent like that, it was around the same time that our cooks stopped "cooking" in the field. We were being fed "T Rations". Basically a big flat rectangular can. The quality of the food went down, while the conditions for the KPs went way up.
    Sleeping in the mess trailer was awesome, so warm in there. All that ever needed to be washed after that point was serving utensils. Food in the field was always better before those dang T-Rats. "Cheesy grits with bacon bits", pure foulness invented by bureaucrats to save .0x cents per serving.

    I am a former reserve officer in the Turkish army. During the training, I would tell the soldiers that soldiers do not sleep, soldiers do not eat, soldiers run and crawl. They live better than their homes. We were living in containers in 100-year-old barracks

    That is the thing about the Navy and being at sea 6 or more months per year.
    You know you can count on very sumptuous meals 3 times per day and you
    will get to eat all you need to get full. What sucks is that U.S. sailors are not
    allowed a beer allowance each day, like the British Navy. Their aircraft carriers
    have a bar on board and sailors are allowed a certain amount of beer per day.
