What passed for a meal when they were called C Rations... I ate them for about the first 5-6 years of my military career. The first MRE's were fielded in 1984...

Just one example:

Down Periscope... Should be shown to all recruits...
Executive Officer Martin T. 'Marty' Pascal: Jesus, Buckman! This stuff's been on the Stingray since Korea! This can expired in 1966!
Seaman Buckman: [tasting contents of can] What's the matter, sir? It still tastes like creamed corn.
Executive Officer Martin T. 'Marty' Pascal: Except it's *deviled ham*!
Seaman Buckman: Now that would be a problem.

That’s pretty cool. When was it issued? After boot? After A school?

During basic at Great Lakes. We were marched to the Exchange and told to buy toothbrush, toothpaste, shaving stuff, soap (Zest only!), extra shoe laces. We were allowed to buy cigarettes ($2/carton) and lighters. There was a guy who would engrave them while you waited.
I would show a picture, but it, along with everything else, is in a storage facility somewhere in Marietta.

I've still got a Zippo I bought in 1982 I think. It's got the camo green pattern on it. I also have one with Air Assault wings engraved on it somewhere that was given to me when I graduated from the school & got my wings.
