There is an overview on this topic. my friend's dad told. served one day then on the South East. helped the brave Americans race through Alaska Airplanes (I forgot their name - who remembers, I will thank you) in the USSR until the discovery second front. There was a lot related to this story, here is one of them.in general, each such aircraft was supplied with a decent supply of soldering (probably a whole month) and other things/items for emergency landings. including alcohol. Naturally, all the inscriptions are in English. those. nothing is clear (all We studied German at school!). However, we are a little distracted from the topic. so here it is. in This ration included crackers, canned food, alcohol, including dry alcohol, matches, and hammers, shovels, axes, and even fishing rods! and why all? yes, you still want not you want, but these planes occasionally suffered accidents and were forced to emergency sits in the wilds of the taiga and swamps. and such rations saved the lives of many of the pilots your time. but upon arrival at USSR airfields such rations were often confiscated and... was cut down/replaced with our Soviet grub. everyone knows that the pilots were/are given a huge amount of alcohol to aircraft maintenance. and a significant part of it is clearly not for its intended purpose used. And what to eat with that huge amount of alcohol? clear pepper that American rations (not to be confused with Paikinda). and were included in those rations canned food with an unclear name, but quite suitable for a snack - something like our canned brawn, or stewed meat - you can’t tell much from drunken eyes, and how to translate the name - there were no English specialists. but it always went cheers. just like ordinary stew.Well, that’s how the planes were ferryed. and here's to that grandfather after the next stage aircraft somewhere in the Kharkov area, we finally managed to find a pilot officer, speaks little English. Listen, says grandfather, why are we alcohol? We're having an American snack - nothing seems to have worked out that way. Here's a jar, try it translate. Hmmm, said that officer, but these are CANNED WORMS! and so It was then that my grandfather realized what they were needed for - after all, they were included in the kit, remember? were FISHING RODS! =))) Sorry, no scandal!
