Description
A metal canteen (a) (19.3cmx12cm widex6.5cm depth) with an army-green, felt-lined, canvas jacket (b) and a plastic, screw-on lid. The body is wider at the top and narrows down at the bottom; there is a shaped metal piece fitted in the bottom of the jacket; it is shaped to fit the canteen, which fits in snugly. The canteen is a typical army surplus store canteen. The plastic, screw-on top has a cork liner and a metal chain attached by a small bolt which connects to the neck of the canteen. The insulated canvas jacket has an opening at the top for the lid, two flaps on the top which can be opened or closed by metal keepers. The front of the jacket has the letters “U.S.” stamped in black ink. On the back, 5.0cm from the top, there is a piece of heavy, corded cotton looped over and sewn down, with a metal piece fitted through the open part, presumably for attaching the canteen to a belt or strap.
