Canister

When it looks like a thermos maybe it is a thermos:-). Anyway it does not have any connection with WWII.

Even household items were stamped with DRGM (Deutsches Reichs- Gebrauchsmuster). On the Dutch version of Ebay 'Marktplaats' theres a lamp for sale stamped DRGM. I heard that even some items produced after WW2 were stamped DRGM. I believe that I can read from Wikipedia that they've been stamping things with DRGM As early as 1876.

DRGM was generally used between 1891 and 1945, but you state that the Thermo is nor from WWII, that does not match the former link I posted and the german text belw from wikipedia (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gebrauchsmuster)

(Zahlreiche Produkte wurden so zwischen 1891 und etwa 1945 mit der Kennzeichnung „D.R.G.M.“ versehen, oft unter Hinzufügung der Musternummer, die es heute erlaubt, die Entstehungszeit mancher materiell überlieferter historischer Geräte auf ein bestimmtes Jahrzehnt einzugrenzen.[1] Auch einige Jahre nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg war diese Kennzeichnung in Westdeutschland gelegentlich noch üblich, die Abkürzung lautete dann entsprechend "D.B.G.M." (Deutsches Bundes-Gebrauchsmuster)

I am still sure it is a Thermo from WWII, it still looks quite a lot this one: thermos

A little late to respond to this one, but to get back to the argument which i had forgotten about; who even says that the site posted is a good, reputable site? I've never heard of it. Deutsche Reichs Patent just means 'German Reich Patent' and the German reich existed already before WW2. If you were sure it was a thermos from WW2 before posting it then why do you even ask for other peoples' opinions?
