MKT Info

[SCSG-G4]

I have been compiling info for use with the MKT and just wanted to let others know what I've found, so they do not duplicate the effort.

Here is what is on the compilation (which is about 1.3 GB right now):
Section 1. Catalogs and Misc
A. Commercial Catalogs - links to commercial companies that supply food service items and articles I have found.
B. Generators - Covers ASK-150, MEP-002, MEP-003, MEP-004, and MJQ-18
C. Shelters - Covers S-150 and S-280 rigid wall shelters
D. Trailers - Covers M103, M-149, and CBC

Section 2. Deuce Trucks
Separate sections on Brakes, Motor, Transmission, and Wheels and Axles, plus the complete 209- and 361- series manuals.
Additionally, I have copied several useful posts from SteelSoldiers for those times that an internet connection is not available.

Section 3. Field Feeding
A. Army Regulations - A couple that apply that I have in electronic form.
B. Field Manuals - FM 8-34 is the only one in electronic format.
C. MWO - MWO-30, PS Magazine MKT Tips, DMWR-10-7360-206 (MKT Upgrade specs).
D. SOP - Five PDF files, six DOC files, DA Form 3032 (headcount), and two modified headcount forms, one for rallies and the other for emergency feeding situations.
E. STP - Cooks - nothing in electronic form yet - this is the skills that cooks in the military are supposed to know.
F. Supply Bulletin - SB 10-495-1 (Standard B Medical Ration)
G. TB MED - three PDF's - TB Med 530, TB MED 577, and TB MED 577(15 Dec 2005).
H. TM's - Subcategories include:
CK - Containerized Kitchen (new replacement for the MKT)
FSC - Field Sanitation Center
FSC-2 - New Field Sanitation Center (with a lot of movies on setup and operation)
Immersion Heater - TM 9-4540-202-12 and one for the Yukon Stove
M59 Range - Range, M-2 burner, and accessories

Recipes - TM 10-412 (Armed Forces Recipe Service) all 1600 recipies, also known as NAVSUP Publication 7, AFJMAN 34-606 (Vol I and II), and MCO P10110.42A

Thank you for all the effort. I will be looking for a MKT in the next year or so. When I turn one up expect a request for that info. Awesome!

Mike,

Thanks for the offer, and all the time and work.

I will send you a thumbdrive this week.

The data is now up to a little over 3.7 GB in electronic form (with some duplication). And includes the German Karcher TF-250 manuals (in German), the cook STP's and the full MBU manual. There is now a section on military radios (US and British) and a lot of other stuff since this first post.

Here's the deal. If you send me a USB drive, I'll load the data on it and I will pay to mail the drive back to you. If it's too much trouble for you to send me a USB drive in a padded envelope (with a legible return address), you can send me $15, and I'll purchase the drive, fill it with the data and mail it to an address you furnish.
