In february 2011 i was rotating home through kuwait from afghanistan on my way home for R&R. Had been eating mostly MRE's and chow made by Afghans for nearly 9 months. Hadnt had a cold glass of real milk since i left the states. When i got off the plane in kuwait i headed to the chow hall and got a plate of spaghetti and a cold glass of milk. I killed the plate of spaghetti and probably 3/4 of a gallon of the best ice cold milk i had ever drank. I puked it all up before i got back to tent city. Best meal i have ever had.

Nov. 10, 2007, Marine Corps Birthday, in Ramadi, Iraq. The Army brigade I was part of, 1st Brigade, 3ID, was OPCON to the MEF which ran Anbar Province, and they really did their birthday right. The chow was typical, but the Guiness and Miller Light were the absolute highlights of the meal. I think they were the 2 best beers I ever had.

Guiness makes any meal a banquet.
In the words of the immortal Popeye Doyle when asked "How can you drink that stuff?"
