After the shuttle crashed, the landing crew was forced to bivouac on the planet’s surface. Their first task was to search the hostile environment of this lifeless planet for any sort of organic material. Otherwise, they would be living off of emergency rations until they were rescued.
Emergency rations were the worst. None of the marines had ever tasted them, but they knew the stories. They all knew a guy who knew a guy who had eaten them once in academy.
Everyone understood that the emergency rations were made of people, their fellow crew members to be exact.
