Everything you need for your K ration! COMPLETELY READY TO EAT! At Hero Rations, we've spent years researching and reproducing rations for reenactors and living history displays! Countless hours of research and using by our own personal collection as a template to build the best instant rations for you!

What makes HERO RATIONS the BEST out there: 1. multiple sources for packaging, materials and ingredients (we have over 240+ different ingredients, packaging, boxes, paper, cans, etc. that go into these kits 2. I use originals in our collection to help reproduce contents exact to originals 3. No expense spared to develop them! Contents: Outer and inner boxes: Just like originals, our K Rations come with with both the museum quality inner and outer morale cartons. These include the waxed inner box and color graphic die cut boxes and all contents listed below. This year we have both the Phillips outer boxes, with the tuck in flaps design! These are professionally printed cartons, not at home on an inkjet printer! Unlike other K rations out there, these K rations are also CORRECTLY packed. As the BEST out there, our ration kits beat the competition since we are to procure the CORRECT sized cans and other items, the cans and cigarette boxes are packed side-by-side, with matches above the can JUST LIKE ORIGINALS. The cellophane accessory bag contains the remaining food items all tightly packed just like originals with the gum packed outside the bag.

Late war Breakfast: Comes with four Domino or Jack Frost wrapped sugar cubes, two packs of energy biscuits, late war gum, cigarettes pack, late war style cellophane wrapped dromedary fruit bar, soluble coffee in correct foil laminated envelope and OD entrée can with wooden paddle spoon.

Late war Dinner comes with two packs of biscuits or large square plain or rectangular JB Carr biscuits, cigarette box, late war gum, box of granulated sugar, lemon juice powder in reusable cellophane sachet (or in laminate foil envelope), box of wrapped caramels or Cholettos and OD painted can of meat with wooden paddle spoon. Also included is the single row match book with Malaria warning (fully functional).

Late war Supper comes with pack of large square plain or rectangular JB Carr biscuits (4-pack) or plain rectangular biscuits (3-pack), gum, cigarette box, Sweet Chocolate Bar (made to exact period Army recipe using a 3-D printed chocolate mold), reusable bouillon envelope with bouillon powder, Waldorf toilet paper and OD painted can of meat and wooden paddle spoon. Contents ready for consumption! You’re instantly ready for your next reenactment event or WWII ration display!

NOTES: Biscuits are made to the correct WWII specifications (K-2 graham, K-4 or C-Type). These biscuits are made using a 3-D printed mold, fresh milled flour, invert sugar, milk powder, cane sugar, soda, malt, sea salt, (molasses and wheat germ for the K-2 biscuits) and shortening. Processed food items are produced using GMP techniques in sanitary environment. Biscuits contain: wheat, cane sugar, invert sugar, pork lard, salt, baking powder, milk powder, malt powder. K-2 biscuits also contain molasses and wheat germ. Cereal contains: wheat germ, powdered milk, honey and sugar Other components are store bought from manufacturers processed and repackaged for the ration kits. For ingredient information on those items send me a message. NOTE: Cigarette packs do not contain tobacco. Meat cans will be ham, chicken or pork depending on availability. Cans will have a small designator stating contents and expiration date.

IMPRESSION NOTES: This was the last series of the US Army K Ration, which in the color cartons was first produced in the 2nd half of 1944. They appear in theater by Autumn 1944. They would be incorrect for Normandy, so we also offer the early/mid war types which would be correct for earlier impressions.
