Did Boy Scouts call it SOS?
I honestly do not recall what we called it.. Slop? But I do remember thinking it (hearing it from my dad all the time) and knowing better to not say it myself until I got to college.

Impressive! Definitely takes that fancy down a level or two.

I saw my sister last night, she says either the canned beef, which was a chipped beef sort of consistency, or mom would buy the thin sliced beef, like the "Buddig" brand name, and chop that up. I though then she used a can of condensed mushroom soup, my sis says no she just made her own white sauce. Sorry this has turned so far off tangent.

Best SOS I ever had came from a Tank Battalion mess hall near Ansbach, Germany. . .1-37 AR. I was the S-2.

USPS tracking says it should arrive Monday, 12/22. Left Dallas on 12/18

A worthy tangent while we wait for arrivals.

Not the best zoom in, but best I could do with my limited photography skills.
