US Army Quartermaster AIT Gold Pass Practice Exam

Which statement describes field rations concept?

Meal, Ready-to-Eat (MRE) and First Strike Ration (FSR) are examples of field rations Field rations are only used in garrison Field rations include no meals Field rations are only beverages

Correct Answer:

Meal, Ready-to-Eat (MRE) and First Strike Ration (FSR) are examples of field rations

Explanation:

Field rations are the packaged, ready-to-consume meals designed for use away from permanent dining facilities, so soldiers can sustain energy and nutrition in the field without cooking. Meal, Ready-to-Eat and First Strike Ration are classic examples of field rations used in field conditions. This makes the statement correct because it directly identifies MREs and FSR as field rations. The idea that field rations are only used in garrison, contain no meals, or are only beverages doesn’t fit with how these rations are meant to be used: they are for field use, they do provide meals, and they are not limited to beverages.
