      Hello Otter42,   It's a container for antifreeze liquid for Japanese gas masks.     p.261 2. GAS MASK ACCESSORIES.  The carriers of most army gas masks are provided with... a container for antifreeze liquid (fig.264.)     (Figure 264.) Metal flask for antifreeze liquid.   https://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/Japan/IJA/HB/HB-9.html

      Guardia Civil here on Cuba 1893, as we see the hats are not the Army Straw one, but a cloth one, with a light colored trim on the brim, just like see in the pervious illustration above.

      Neat little can with folding stand. Not sure if Japanese or not. Thanks for any help with translation.

      Cross posted from USMF sister site. Maybe folks here can Help ID A pack worn by the US Soldier in this photo from The Battle of The Hurtgen Forest?   I don't know if it might be a german "Tornister" pack he might have picked up. It looks kinda like one but seems different.   Caption: "SC 270664 - U.S. infantrymen leave the muddy road to enter the the Hurtgen Forest, Germany, as they advance against German installations in the wooded area. 18 November, 1944."   Credit: "Company I, 3rd Battalion, 8th Infantry Regiment, 4th Infantry Division. Photographer: T/4 Moran. Photo Source: U.S. National Archives."

      Nice assortment of Hindenburg Crosses and variations.  Looking for the black case for “Widow/Parents” Hindenburg Cross…which is rare.

      Camouflage Paint Job and All.   U.S. M3 T48 GMC, equipped with the M1  57 mm antitank gun, it fell into German hands in 1944, the 72nd Infantry Division (See Yellow Cross Divisional Symbol).   Other Markings Gr.R.105 is for Grenadier Regiment 105, 14 Company, the regimental anti tank company and the Capital K is for the 1st Panzer Army, K being the original symbol when this Army was Panzer Group Kleist, with this K retained after it was retiled.   This vehicle is from April 1945 in Czechoslovakia. The Soviets renamed this one, as the SU 57.

      Ok thanks that makes sense, with this I also got two other similar images both have just names on the back. Found them while flipping thru a random military postcard bin at a antique show.

      Hello, I picked up this 1943 dated Christmas plate the other day and thought I would share just in time for Christmas.  I think this is a neat item.  Merry Christmas!  Cheers!
