Aluminum Canteen-Korean War Era","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is a nice U.S. military field mess kit component set consisting of an olive drab enameled canteen cup stove\/heater paired with an aluminum canteen marked “MM Co.” The green outer piece is the folding field stove\/cup assembly designed to nest with the canteen and be used for heating rations or boiling water in the field. These were commonly used from the late WWII period into the Korean War era.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe stove retains its original olive drab finish with integrated latch and vented construction. The interior porcelain\/enamel liner is still present, which is a feature collectors like because many examples are chipped or heavily worn. The aluminum canteen shows honest field wear and oxidation consistent with military service use. The cap and strap remain attached.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe “MM Co.” marking on the canteen is associated with one of the wartime\/postwar military contractors. Complete matching nested field sets are increasingly desirable to collectors of U.S. field gear, Korean War equipment, and military camping\/survival items.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOriginal OD green paint with handling wear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEnamel interior intact with moderate wear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWorking latch assembly present\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAluminum canteen with age patina and service wear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNo major dents or structural damage visible\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDisplays very well\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Whiskey Rebellion Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43049416917069,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0610\/9229\/8829\/files\/6243F39E-59AC-4D90-A087-0DA88C67B01F.jpg?v=1779987723","url":"https:\/\/whiskeyrebellionantiques.com\/products\/u-s-military-m1945-enamel-canteen-cup-stove-mm-co-aluminum-canteen-korean-war-era","provider":"Whiskey Rebellion Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
