CnOW GOeS MODERN
Surveying the army rations orders for the
boys now doing their hep-hep, a veteran of
other days can't help noting how the nutrition
experts have changed their tune. Captain
Galleries of 1918 now is Major Vitamins.
In both the army and navy today, the lad
dies are getting something that would have
called forth shouts of sissy" "a years ago.
For example, eight ounces Of Grange juice a
day. That, according to the army men who are
supposed to know, is vitamin stuff and not
only helps the boys to feel like hammering
their chests when they roll out in the cold
gray dawn, but promotes mountaineering in
case there are any wounds to heal.
The present army rations also are designed,
if that's the word, to give the ravenous four
times as much Vitamin B as government
standards rate a safe Minimum" and four
times the minimum of Vitamin c (citrus
fruits and vegetables). The orange juice pro-
vides just one-thirty-second of the latter. The
latest development in army nutrition, I'm told,
is the business of "spiking' bread with Wit
amin B ~. More power to the old staff of
life.
For Emergency ONLY
The army has four %rations: ID Regular
cantonment r%ations; ca Field r%ations; 81
Combat rations; "a Emergency rations, for
use only when a man or group is completely
cut off from supply lines.
It's No. 4 that has the boys mumbling in
their sleep. It's a chocolate bar, about an
inch thick and the size of the palm of your
hand. Some of the boys have been nibbling on
it and the report is: Gosh, this stuff tastes
like . . well, it tastes funny"
I've been shopping and I'm glad to report:
It's supposed to taste that way. 1t used to
10 c%o i,,c+ lilo q r1oip chocolate hor b,,+ ~
didn't take the army that long to discover
the soldiers couldn't be trusted with their
''emergency rations." They ate them as fast
as they could be issued. So now, thanks to a
little harmless culinary chicanery, Ration No.
4 tastes kinda funny and keeps a whole
lot longer.
Back To Old Grind
Policemen and firemen who enlisted or were
'selecteed' into the army are discovering
Cat Camp Dix, NJ. j., at least that if they had
any idea of getting a change of pace for a
while, they were counting without that new
theory of putting men into jobs where they
will count most. Both, after minimum pre-.
l~irninary training, are being hustled right back
to the old stand-the policemen to the Provost
Marshals office to become ace M. P.'s, and
the firemen to the post fire houses, which will
be stated with a force of 125 men.
First Birthday
Into headquarters here comes a little item
that shows just how far behind the times our
fighting forces were and some indication at
least that we are marching along. 1t comes
from Fort Benning, Ca, and said item is that
the 9th and a~nti-tank battalion, first of its
kind in the army's history, has just celebrated
the one-year anniversary of its birth. It now
has 80 officers and 500 enlisted men and is
fully equipped with the latest motorized gadg
cts of modern warfare. This doesn't mean,
naturally, that it is the only anti-tank outfit ir
the army. . it's just the first to get one
candle on its brand new 37mm guns.
