Christy - The original post of this ended up in my other mailbox. I
don't think it appeared here when it should have.

Christy,
If you do empty C-ration cans, etc., I suggest you do it from the
bottom so the cans look unopened when on view. Old cigarette and
accessory packs should last indefinitely, since there is no food
items in them (sugar, salt, TP, matches, etc., if I remember from 50
years ago). Perhaps you can slit the MREs up the back and restuff
the package so it looks original.
