What type of cooker was stored in the Bren Gun carrier

[Rob Beale]

If you have an LP2 or LP2A carrier, the cooking unit stowage box will not fit a No 2 cooker, as used in the Universal carriers.

The paraffin cooker in the pic below is dated 1944 with broad arrow on the upright bar above the label.

I found it locally, in NZ and it fits neatly in the tall round tin with a smaller spares tin. A snug fit in the LP style cooker box for length, with some room beside it.

For info I reproduce a pic I saved from MLU of a No2 Cooker with large dixie and lid on its stowage bracket. (Sorry I didn't save the pic owners name).
