Military recipes, cooking for the military
hi, this morning I was wandering what you can find when Googling for "military recipes", so I started Googling.
the first result is a webpage with lots of recipes for a crowd of a 100 men! All the recipes also show the nutritional value. This is the site
If you want more, ZDNet has software with over 1600 military recipes which were developed by the US Military, for $14,95, you can download this recipes database
At http://www.angelfire.com/bc/incredible/militaryrecipes.htm recipes are listed from the Canadian Military, this seems to be the only site with recipes from the Canadian Military.
I also found a website which has some old recipes, including Anzac Biscuits :
ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, and these cookies are so named because they were baked and shipped off to Australian and New Zealander soldiers during World War I.

R&R for US Military personnel
On www.spaceatravel.com you can order the book Space A Travel for information on leave on space-available military bases
This is some info from the website:
"We have helped thousands of people save money on travel since 1986
One of the great privileges of serving in the U.S. Armed Forces is Space-A travel -- the use of military lodging on a space-available basis at hundreds of installations around the world.
The Worldwide Space-A Travel Handbook had its inception in 1985, when its original publisher asked an experienced Space-A traveler why he carried a notebook instead of one of the Space-A handbooks already in existence. Answer: No book covered all the essential information in a comprehensive, accurate format. The publisher offered to issue the traveler's notes in book form. The first edition appeared in December 1986. The book is now published and distributed by spaceatravel.com and is used by thousands of service people around the globe."

Military veterans and people locating resources
Dear visitors,
My name is Angelica Ars, I am 34 years of age, webmaster in my own time, and have added this blog to Blogger.com
For the past eight years I have a people locating website online.
The address is
http://www.angelica.dds.nl/index.php
Ways to find back friends, a former lover or relatives can be:
- through phonebooks
- email directories
- military locators, on that topic there are many links on my website.
In addition, I link to many, many military websites, and other information relevant to military personnel and their relatives or spouses.
The following piece of text is linked to on my page for and about US Military veterans,
http://www.angelica.dds.nl/armyvets.htm
This poem, or piece of text, may be quite well-known in the US. The first few lines are listed here, the whole text can be read at

May I Salute You?
by Patricia Salwei
I approached the entrance to Ft Belvoir's medical facility last year as an
old veteran puttered towards me. Easily over 80 year old, stooped and slow,
I barely gave him a second glance because on his heels was a full bird
colonel.
As they approached, I rendered a sharp salute and barked, "Good
morning, Sir!" Because they were heel to toe, I began my salute as the old
veteran was about two paces from me. He immediately came to life!
Transformed by my greeting, he rose to his full height, returned my salute
with pride, and exclaimed, "Good morning captain!" I was startled, but the
full bird behind him was flabbergasted. The colonel stopped mid‑salute,
smiled at me and quietly moved on.
