Phaedrus,

I saw that you had an old Army recipe for Banana Milk from Vietnam.
Might you have a recipe for Baked Bean Sandwiches, too?

Hello Cal,

Sure enough, that same book, "How to Feed an Army: Recipes and Lore from the Front Lines" by J.G. Lewin and P.J. Huff, has the Baked Bean Sandwich recipe from the Vietnam era.

See below.

3 cups canned baked beans with pork
1/4 cup chopped fresh celery
1/3 cup chopped onions
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped sweet cucumber pickles
1/4 cup chili sauce
20 slices bread
1/3 cup butter or margarine

Drain beans and discard liquid. Mash beans. Combine beans with remaining 
ingredients; mix throughly. Spread bread with butter or margarine. Spread 
slices of bread with1/3 cup of filling each; top with second slices of bread.
