My son, who was once interested in becoming a restraint chef, was given a WWII US Army mess hall manual that was acquired on EBay. It had approved menus and recipes and how to stock the mess. You may want to try to find one of those.

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.
