HHH's Lunchtime GotD - Name That Geocache Container?

This was a really peaceful and fun lunchtime geocaching find. The area is a very nice woodsey kind of place right off of a paved entrance road. The sun was out, the birds tweeting in the distance and everything was covered in pine pollen. Ahhh, spring time.

Anyways I found the geocache after getting tired of playing follow the bouncing arrow and just plain looked around. I think it is really cool but I am a bit vexed as to what this container is and what it was used for?. It looks military and the size of a small canteen. There is a large latch in front that has a lock bar for well, a lock. The top opens freely at the visible seam 2/3 the way up.

Quickie Contest

So to make this interesting I am making a quickie contest. The first one to comment at the bottom of this post with the correct answer wins a HHH pathtag. I will verify it and announce the winner. Good luck!


Now to see if a sub is in my immediate future.

    Bill is correct. It is a Swedish Military Mess kit. I own two of them with the alcohol burner. Wonderful to have in the car for just in case.

    WWI or WWII Army mess kit. The top is used as a cup or a pot to cook the bottom was a bottle for carrying water.
