I asked around the office at the Fort Walla Walla Museum for references and the 1941 "Manual of Mess Management" by Military Service Publishing Co. came highly recommended. If you can't find it anywhere near you, the museum has a copy that you could view.
Feel free to contact me off list to schedule a visit.
Best,
Ashley

Subject: WWII Cookhouses
We are analyzing a US World War II military-associated cookhouse/mess hall dense can dump (with some ceramics, condiment and soda bottles and enamelware). Has anyone found archival data detailing typical meals prepared for troops in the US during WWII? I have found details on what was served overseas and in the war zone but would appreciate comparative data on typical diet, meals, or archival sources from US bases, especially in the west.
