Re: Don't forget the can openers!

Don't forget the lowly P-38 can opener. It was issued to the military in their
C-rations and K-rations. They are plentiful and fairly cheap. You can usually buy them at a military surplus store or order them online. I kept one on my key chain at work for years. People would laugh at me for keeping one. When they couldn't find the regular can opener, they always wanted to borrow my keys. I have at least a half dozen.
