What do you know today that you didn't know yesterday?

[Rev. Rye]

On the morning of 6 June 1944, while the Allied troops were stationed in England, this is what they ate before they went into the jaws of death (And, yes, this was an EXTREMELY early breakfast):





Note: The quarter pound of powdered eggs seems to be about the equivalent of 8 eggs. So, adjust accordingly.

Also, this reminds me of an Door County breakfast joint I used to go to before the Plague shuttered it. They included an item called the "D-Day". I never ordered it, but here's the description I found from their old site on the Internet Archive:

"D-Day"
In honor of our World War II Veterans
Deluxe Creamed Chipped- Beef served over a French Croissant,
with a side of Door County Bakery Chopped Cherry jam.

It turns out their elevated Shit on a Shingle was way off.
