Unitized Group Ration - Express (UGR-E)

The Wornick Company has actively participated in product development and technical assistance for group field feeding products and services with all branches of the military’s field feeding organization to promote customer goodwill and stay abreast of new developments. In 2002, The Wornick Company became a participant among other manufacturers and suppliers for the development of the Unitized Group Ration-Express as designed by Natick Soldier Center. The basic objective of this new group ration is to provide a remote feeding capability without the use of external equipment (e.g. field kitchens, ovens, grills, etc.) but provide a self-heating meal for group feeding.

UGR-E consists of a compact, disposable meal module with a safe self-contained heating mechanism that is easy to use. UGR-E offers a breakfast or dinner menu variety containing entrée, vegetables, starch (e.g. rice, potatoes), dessert, serving utensils, trays, cups, condiments, snacks, etc.

If you’d like to learn more about UGR-E such as menus, how it’s used, technical specifications (shelf life, components descriptions) and more, visit The Wornick Company’s recommended website.
