    Hi, I found this in my fathers attic many years ago. I will post a pic when i can. Its a tin of food rations. on the front it says Survival Arctic. Issued August 1957. It has the old church key opener. all still in tact. I have hung onto it for about 30 years now, and i would like to know what war it came from and if its worth anything.

      It is a artic survival ration from the late 1950s to mid- 60s. They are placed in survival kits on US Airforce aircraft operating in the artic. The value on Ebay is approximately $20 to $30. I have a large collection of this type of stuff.
