How do you picture an R.I.U. (tnt) toaster?

Creamed chipped beef on toast, Navy SeeBees, circa WWII.

*6-10 oz. chipped beef
*Tablespoon or two chopped onion/shallot
*2-3 T flour
*2-3 T butter (Use oil if you have to, please don't use margarine)
*1 1/2 - 2 C milk (Or half & half if you love it X-tra tubby)
*Fresh cracked pepper to taste
*Shot or six hot sauce (optional)
*Fresh or frozen (thawed on some hot water) green peas (optional)

Get a nice butter/flour/minced onion roux goin on for a few minutes, just cooking out the 'raw' flower, don't wanna gumbo-style choco brown roux for this one. Bust that leathery beef up with your fingers and let it crisp/hiss away while you whisk/stir almost constantly for a few minutes. Add that milk as you whisk away, keep at it for a minute or two and you'll have a lovely cream base!
If you go the pea route NOW is the time - Add those shiny beads and toss 'em in your Bechamel/base for a minute or two. When you are satisfied that each component in your skillet has achieved multiple orgasms multiple times, turn OFF that heat and pour that creamy slop right over buttered crispy toast, mashed/jacket potato, or whatever the fuck you'd like!
Some add loads of garlic, herbs, olives, even various curries - Different ports of call during wartime, kiddies!

When the GIs made this stuff the British SAS slurped it up, as well - Cheers. Some speculate that the British had a hand in the addition of green peas!

You really can't fuck it up, man. They had 17-year-old kids right off the boat whipping it up in times of need, heh.
Cream base is versatile as a mofo with all manner of meats, veg, legumes, etc.

I imagine it was quite the warm treat for those guys....it wasn't like these days (obviously), my dad and his buddy Welton talked about how they'd often toss/parachute large wooden crates filled with crappy/stale C-rations, rock hard biscuits, and tins of sardines and pork that were leaking and rancid.
Gee, thanks for the 'nutritious' Nazi-killing fuel, US Gov....

I appreciate your service and I'm sorry that you were over in there in the shit. :(

The old man was 'in country' through the early 40s, back at it in Korea, and was ready to head to Saigon but his COs basically told him "Look, you've got a family now and you've more than done your service, so...".....

Ohhhhh shit, NOW we are talking! I keep packets of prime dried/salted beef on-hand at all times! My pop brought this one back from years overseas in the service, and we all loved it.

Where are the bright, fresh green peas, though?

I've got an old/kickass recipe for this slop, as well.

Maybe it was just because my grandmother made it, but I loved her creamed beef on toast. Fond memories even today, nearly 40 years on...

The old man was part of a greater effort to snuff out that opulent nutball Kim II-Sung, and now look at how things have devolved over there into a sci-fi nightmare dystopia, with his fatboy villain grandson in total control of a massive torture camp/madhouse. :(

Was it all in vain?

The idea of a large-scale battle theatre sickens me to my core, but if we are being realistic here there really should be a plan in place to secure/eliminate the Korean Richie Rich/rotund sadist.
The abused and beautiful people of 'North' Korea deserve and need a hand with this...they want badly to reunite with their countrymen in the South, once the torment/Stockholm Syndrome has ended. I'm sure that after generations of living in an industrial nightmare that some of those folks would like to live abroad....I'd certainly help facilitate that via local foundations.
