From page 26...
... Ever since the first two soldiers picked up their spears and began to march in step, weight and volume reduction, shelf life extension, and quality improvement have been basic goals for military subsistence research and development. Today, our peacetime defense capability is based on ever-ready, highly mobile, response forces supported with advanced technology and advanced weapon systems.
From page 27...
... Further implications of the current limited usage of compressed, dehydrated foods are the inability to stock small lots -- due to the absence of an adequate civilian production base -- to allow diversified evaluation and to procure significantly large quantities quickly in the event of a major mobilization. The high capital costs of dehydration and microwave equipment are a consideration.
From page 28...
... It must share and promote this knowledge base and develop technology with the civilian sector where it can be applied to the solution of problems and meeting of needs of the civilian market segments. Military support must be provided for the research, development, and production of dehydrated, compressed foods filling essential military operational needs.
