Dm - on the pic of the big round lid, is that ACC I see stamped above the 1940 date?

Attachment 383754

Isn't ACC the standard abbreviation for Army Catering Corps? May be they are some kind of lid for provisions storage containers, though what specifically I have no idea?

cheers

I also came to the same conclusion, but DM has said they are all marked differently

Hey peeps, most say ACC, but then again some don't. One has a massive S in a circle.

just thought...can it be Army Catering Corps with a 1940 date, as the ACC it wasn't formed until 1941, unless they stamped the ACC later...hmmm

Please can a moderator please delete this entire page of comments and as far back as the last post that actually containing anything relevant to this thread. Once done, we can contain you post things.

Until then you can all just wait... I'm not having the thread ruined by pages of rubbish, sorry for the delay.

Thread tidied. In future could I suggest you don't participate in discussions within your thread that you consider irrelevant. This will avoid such occurences in the future. Also, a simple request to tidy it will suffice. Please avoid the unnecessary dummy spitting as the mods don't usually respond well to threats, however trivial.

What are you talking about? Steve handled this in a manner of respect and advice how to avoid further problems. This is a place for people in big boy pants.

I'm curious about what looks like a non-British Canteen in the photo's ...

Was the item made of Aluminium or enameled steel ?
