Did you ever wonder what your mess equipment or K ration cans would look like buried for
60 years or so? Well ,Michal Osadczuk of Saarbrücken Germany uncovered some of our
equipment and trash while scouring the battlefields in and around Kleinblittersdorf, Germany.
The following images are photos of a mess kit fork and the lid from a K ration can.

L-R: A lid from a can of "home cooked" Beef and Pork loaf from
a K-Ration and a mess kit fork. Uncovered from a fox hole near
Kleinblittersdorf , Germany

On the reverse side of the mess kit fork are these four numbers
"9859". Under the assumption that they are the last four numbers of
the owners service number it could have belonged to Pfc Casimer A.
Milczarski, 42099859, H Company 253d Infantry Regiment.
