Otter42 Posted October 5, 2021 #1 Posted October 5, 2021 Just got this in a trade. My friend says it's a Naval landing force officers canteen. Could someone please read the writing on it for me, he thought part of it was for the man's rank. Thanks so much
St.Lukas Posted October 6, 2021 #2 Posted October 6, 2021 It’s a navy model. Both officers and enlisted used exact same canteens.
Rod Posted October 8, 2021 #4 Posted October 8, 2021 Sorry I can't get more from the inscription Otter42. The 3rd kanji down on the right side is poorly written and the 3rd on the left side is strange. Perhaps a navy thing, I don't know. Army stuff seems more straightforward to me. Reading from right to left: Right side: 夫七, (汞, 未 or neither) 九 Man 7, (?) 9 Left side: 二品, (?) 用 2nd goods/article, (?) service
Otter42 Posted October 8, 2021 Author #5 Posted October 8, 2021 Thanks Rod, more then I had. Really appreciate your time. Ken
