I really got into steve1989s mre videos. So I collect vintage military rations.

...1989..."vintage"...[cries in GenX]

Some of the rations he reviews are as old as from during the Civil War. I think 1989 has to do with the channel creator's birth.

That's just his name. He's had super old rations, like from the world wars and even older.

That is unique. Why do you find them interesting/ what is you favorite vintage MRE fun fact?
