Mk 2 Carrier water can

[rupert condick]

hi what a useful bit of info,
from my understanding,
colours were White water, Green Oil, Black Petrol,

RAF, using pipe colours here, Water Blue,oil yellow, Petrol red,

But as sated earlier variations.
I have these which I have repainted as found. dated DD 1942
with lettering.

i also came across these used in the ME, and Italy.
appear to be a 2 gallon jerry can construction.
Camel cans were the sought after containers for water in the M.E.
But I have not seen any pictures of them actually being used,
by the Army, only these 2 gallon Jerry can type.

This is said to be a British Water can
Just no info on it.
