A SOLDIER or a sailor eats
about one and half times as much
as civilian. He reduces civilian
supplies only by the differences
between what he ate as a civilian
and what he eats now-the differ
ence between 5l4 pounds a day
compared with 3A pounds in civil
life. The War Food Administra-
ton says the average weekly diet
for a man in training includes:
1-5 pounds of meat; eggs; 312
pounds of milk; l is pounds of
evaporated milk; ice cream once
a week; at least pound of butter,
margarine and other fats; Az
pounds of bread, cereal and other
