Welcome aboard 
Yes, the whole thing sounds like unnecessary cruelty to humans and to animals. But religion doesn't care about who it hurts to get its way.

(Could have at least done it right, get some infantry out there to play OPFOR. Denying christ my ass - try "take off your shoes, place your gear 5 feet away and lay face down with your arms stretched straight out over your head, palms flat, mouth shut. Chairs are for officers, not prisoners.)
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

You mean "Meals Refused by Ethiopians"?
The goddamned meatballs in BBQ sauce -- those things went through me like the Wehrmacht through France.

Moosecock! It was a means of ensuring the brethren weren't inadvertently spilling seed on the ground.

(I always went for the vegetarian MREs, you always got extras -since nobody else wanted to eat/be seen eating them, and they were at least palatable)
