Spanish sailors. Soldiers get ~two pounds of pan de munition a day, because they're not stuck in a wooden box for a few months.

"Ammo bread?" I hope that's just an old name for hard biscuits.

Ancient Roman and Greek soldiers generally got about 2 lbs of wheat a day, plus whatever they could buy or steal. Usually they boiled it. So you could try that, if you like boring mush.
