Help with ID of Ammo Case & Basket Pack VN Era?
Can anyone help me ID the items in these photos?. Owner identifies this as "Metal Missile Ammo Case in Basket Pack from 1960's Vietnam War", I have no idea what they are and have not been able to find any photographic examples.
Thanks in advance,
Russ & Son

They are common to find because they are swiss army surplus containers, they originally carried powder charges for a 10,5 cm Howitzer.
Post war, i think 1970's.
They can be found with a badly faked WaA stamp, so beware.
