I should let a 'tracker' answer your question on apricots,,,basically there has always been a superstition that eating apricots on a track was bad luck. At least in the Marines. In the days of C-rats, apricots in the nice little green can were a great find and a true delight!  Anyway in my experience with AAVs/LVTPs, and that goes back to the LVTP-5,,,dang I'm older than I thought!!  Anyway, grunts (the Backbone of the Corps!) Wink would get in serious trouble for eating the apricots while on board a track...we used to mess with the trackers and leave apricot cans on the track..AFTER we had got off the track of course!!Stick out tongue
