    Staff Sgt. Rachael Marzette, 386th Expeditionary Medical Group noncommissioned officer in charge of public health, inspects a Meal Ready to Eat (MRE) at an undisclosed location in Southwest Asia. According to public health, MREs expire about three years after their pack date, but by inspecting them at that three-year point, their shelf life can be extended. Marzette's inspection included observing the contents of the MRE, and tasting and smelling all of the components. MREs that pass the inspection are deemed safe to eat and are inspected again in six month increments for up to two years past the three-year expiration date. Marzette is deployed from Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Marelise Wood)
