Eating enough food to meet nutritional needs and maintain good health and good performance in all aspects of lifeâ€"both at home and on the jobâ€"is important for all of us throughout our lives. For military personnel, however, this presents a special challenge. Although soldiers typically have a number of options for eating when stationed on a base, in the field during missions their meals come in the form of operational rations. Unfortunately, military personnel in training and field operations often do not eat their rations in the amounts needed to ensure that they meet their energy and nutrient requirements and consequently lose weight and potentially risk loss of effectiveness both in physical and cognitive performance. This book contains 20 chapters by military and nonmilitary scientists from such fields as food science, food marketing and engineering, nutrition, physiology, psychology, and various medical specialties. Although described within a context of military tasks, the committee's conclusions and recommendations have wide-reaching implications for people who find that job-related stress changes their eating habits.

This book highlights the entire family of fielded combat rations. Rations are categorized into one of four platforms: Individual Rations, Assault Rations, Group Rations, and Special Purpose Rations. Each ration is described by its purpose, major characteristics, nutritional data, and preparation requirements. The mission of the DoD Combat Feeding Program is to ensure that America's Warfighters are the best fed in the world. By investing in high risk/high payoff science and technology, and utilizing Continuous Product Improvement (CPI), CFD provides Warfighters with revolutionary combat feeding capabilities.

The contemporary operating environment requires state-of-the-art combat rations to provide for the nutritional needs of the Warfighter in a wide variety of situations, from peacekeeping to high-intensity combat and contingency operations. Under the auspices of the DoD, the U.S. Army Natick Soldier Research Development and Engineering Center (NSRDEC) DoD Combat Feeding Directorate (CFD) and Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) - Troop Support employ a total life cycle approach in developing, testing, evaluating, procuring, fielding, and supporting all military rations. These rations are a vital contribution to the overall quality of life of the individual combatant.
