Why would they want to change the name?
S.O.S it was, and S.O.S. it should always be. I'm sure most of you know what that first S. stood for. Oh, and I forgot to ask about the Army spaghetti; great stuff, I loved it.

They sure do. Though it's a fair bit less salty than the old standard. You'll find different names for it, though. Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast has become Country-Style Beef Gravy. You usually have the option of biscuits or toast (toast is authentic).

SOS is part of the "Army Retiree Reduction Plan", feed your soldiers foods high in fat and thus they will die off in their 50-60's
and not use up their retirement pay. :-)

They now call it "country-style gravy with handmade biscuits".
