Thanks for the details.

Definitely 4 of the 3 men - 1 day box for the Sherman Firefly according to the CES... which had 4 crew... so I assume this provides 4 men with 3 days rations.

I have a similar post-ww2 version of the 2 men - 1 day tin, and the bottom part of a ww2 version of the tin.

Having the dimensions of the 3 men tin will allow me to ensure I don't pick up the wrong one if I find a tin which has been repainted, or has the stencilling missing.

Just need to find 4 tins now.

I have some of the 1950s 2 men tins spare.

Cheers

Tim
