Defence released feedback documents from personnel regarding combat ration pack (CRP1M) improvements, spanning February to August 2021. Suggestions included adding wet wipes for field hygiene, expanding steak bar flavour varieties, introducing savoury snacks like trail mix and peanuts comparable to US MRE offerings, improving condiment selections with cheese spreads and jalapeño options, adding protein or energy bars to reduce sugar intake during extended operations, and removing times from ration box piquet lists to improve usability for inexperienced commanders. Additional feedback reported defective matches in ration packs that failed to light during field exercises. The documents are heavily redacted with sender and recipient names removed under section 47E(d), limiting identification of personnel involved in the feedback process.
