No Im in Ms. I actually kept all mine and use them when we go hunting or deep sea fishing for a couple of days. I usually just grab a box and tell the guys Im bringing dinner. At first they were ready to string me up but they learned to like them as they are not all that bad.
I bet they dropped 10-15000 at a time in a ball feild by my parents house. No one would go and get them. So me and my brother hooked up the 5x8 trailer and went a loaded them up. The local police actually stopped and asked what we were doing. We had told them and they actually said there would be another chopper coming to make another drop that day. So it would be good that we moved them. I bet we made at the least of 10 hauls. My wife said enough. I think she started to think about how many she would have to eat. So I figured I had enough. I still got a large amount of them and its been over two years now. They still are very tasty in my opinon. They have matches but no smokes. All well I dont smoke anyway.

At least your making sure they don't go to waste. Besides they really don' taste bad.

I sometimes wish I had that many.

I was thinking about putting some on ebay to sell but didnt know if I could get in any type of trouble over it. I really dont think so but you never know these days. sniper69 if you ever come down to Ms. gulfcoast let me know in advance and I will kick you down a couple of cases if you want them. They are all still banded. Im in the X-Mas spirt.

About how far from Montgomery are you? I might be persuaded to make a road trip one of these days.

Sorry about not getting back to you. I have been gone working. What are they worth to you? I would rather trade you for somthing of intrest versus you paying for them. Shipping is what would cost so much. Im about 4 1/2 hrs. one way from Montgomery. I still have a pretty good stock pile of them but they are going down. I think my wife has been bring them to work and given some to those ladys husbands for hunting season. And my brother has rights to half of them as he helped me load and unload them all. But they are in my warehouse. And please dont take this the wrong way but Im really not interested in shipping a bunch of MRE's. Im just to busy right now. And I will be leaving for WestPalm Beach the 3rd of jan. for 2 weeks. Just let me know.

Well, I have some Armalite AR10 mags if you have any use for them. Some used 'old style' and some used 'new style'. They are going for about $45 each right now. If we have another hi-cap ban, they'll be right back up to $65- $75 like they were in Md. a few years ago.
