Email him with any questions in that regard at  .MIL SPEC CHOCOLATE PREMISE: Chocolate ... it makes your taste buds dance with joy ... unless you are chowing down on a bar made to military specifications. In 1937 the Quartermaster's Corp approached the Hershey Corporation with a request for a military chocolate bar. It had to withstand temperatures up to 120 F and provide 600 calories per 4 oz. bar. It was intended as a high calorie, compact, emergency ration. The taste was specified to be " littler better than a boiled potato" so that the troops would save them for a real emergency and not eat them as treats. Hershey delivered and the D ration was born. Acquiring the nickname of " Hitler's Secret Weapon " , it did have the benefit of being well tolerated by those ill with dysentery, a somewhat questionable endorsement. In 1943 Hershey was requested to improve the taste and responded with the Tropical Bar, so named for its intended audience in the Pacific theater. The Tropical Bar was discontinued after the Vietnam war. Considering how " survivable " these bars were, you might still find one in an Army surplus store. If you buy one, don't say you weren't warned. We salute the brave men and women of our military who consumed these confectionary creations during their service. TIME FRAME: The first day of the month 0000Z through the last day of the month 2400Z RULES: Just make ALL these words from calls of stations you work subject to the General Challenge Rules. (Any spaces in the phrases should be ignored. For example the challenge phrase "INVERTED V ANTENNA" should be treated as if it is the single word "INVERTEDVANTENNA.") D RATIONS THE HERSHEY CORPORATION THE TROPICAL BAR MILITARY SPECIFICATIONS BOILED POTATO TASTE 120 F The 86 total letters contain these 20 different letters and numbers : A B C D E F H I L M N O P R S T Y 1 2 0 You can use each letter in a call TWICE. For example you could use K3WWP for 2 K's, 4 W's, and 2 P's. Subsequent QSO's with the same station cannot be used for additional letters. For example, no matter how many times you work K3WWP, you can only use his call for 8 of the letters in the words. See General Rule #5 for more details on what callsign letters can be used. If you need some help with your alphabet challenge record keeping take a look at our Alphabet Tutorial page for everything from some great pencil & paper methods to fully computerized tools. AWARDS: A certificate and Participation Point go to everyone making all the words and submitting their report before the deadline. A Participation Point goes to everyone making at least 1, but not all the words and submitting their report before the deadline. PRIZES: A choice of an item made by master woodworker Gregg WB8LZG as shown on our prizes page here goes to someone selected via a random drawing from all who participate and submit a report for this month's challenge. A person can only win once, then they become ineligible for future drawings. LOGS: For your report, list the words you made and the station used for each letter in the word. The number of stations listed must be the same as the number of letters in each word, even though you use the same station for more than one letter as in: WORD - K3WWP N2OD WA8REI N2OD NEXT - NF8M W8REI N8XMS K9EYT (Note how N2OD is listed for both the O and D.)

Soapbox:AH6AX: Thanks for another fun, word challenge! 72 Larry WV8DH: As usual a fun challenge. Had fun doing it and look forward to next months. 72/73, Dave NF1U: Another interesting challenge. I especially enjoy the history of each challenge theme. I was able to complete this one in record time for me, many thanks to the folks on the SKCC frequencies. K1III: Another great challenge. Thanks to all 73 Dick KJ4R: Another fun challenge. Seemed tougher this month to get all the needed letters. My operating is generally limited to evenings and 40 meters. Made a few contacts on 30 but 40 is by far my best band with 20 and 17 being dead most of the time I'm at the rig. Funny coincidence........the last letters I needed were RST. Got my first letter on the 1st day of March and finished on March 21. Looking foward to next month. 73 to everyone. K3WWP: Not much to say about this one. Very normal. Just took the letters as they came without really going out of my way to look for any of them. Finished up on the 22nd, about average when I do it this way. Still fascinating to see my paper log fill up with the letters as I print in the calls and watch the words gradually get completed. I'd miss that if I would use a computer program to do it for me. K1YAN: For several weeks I was wondering if anyone with a T in their call still had a working radio and then in 3 hours I got all but one T in the log. KB1M: Fun challenge, kind of addictive , thanks to all. Walt PA0XAW: Nice challenge! Most difficult letter? The "T". N8XMS: The T's almost killed me on this challenge. I had just about all of the other letters collected by about the middle of the month but almost no T's and we needed 11 of them! I started hunting for them specifically and finally completed the challenge on the 25th. N8ZYA: I love this AP - I had serious doubts about completing all the "T" letters this month. I was not able to capture the very last one until 3/28. Not much DX this month! WA7QCC: What fun... first but not last challenge... 72 KG4MTN: Never kew the letter"I" was so difficult to find!! Had fun looking for it!! K1IEE: Another great challenge. Thanks to all 73 Dick W2JEK: WAS A GOOD CHALLENGE. LAST LETTER NEEDED WAS O. 72 AND 73 DON YOUNGER KB1KXL: I got no calls with a "y" this month. In fact, the last time I worked a domestic "y" was in January. K8RJW: I guess one is better than nothing! A very short one at that...Bob KI4IO: Tough month - no letter T's when I needed them. I had a LOT of QSO's! W8RDG: Had a great time, look forward to April! 73's Ron HA4FY: I made a stupid mistake and missed one "T". Next time I must be more accurate and do not wait till last minute for submission. So this month report is "checklog only" |
