Re: Field Pieces - Info Needed - Thanks
Hi Alec, I cannot help on the water bottle, but the "Spork" is WW2 German. "40" is the date for 1940.
The ammo package is military. The maker code "faa" is for Deutsche Waffen- u. Munitionsfabriken AG, Karlsruhe.
Cheers, Ade.

Re: Field Pieces - Info Needed - Thanks
Hello,
Sorry i can't help you with the canteen, but maybe a fellow member from eastern Europe can at least translate the engraving. The fork/spoon combo is a WWII german regulation item : maker H.H.L., year of production 1940. The ammo box is for 22. LR rifle i guess....should have been used for training, HJ practising etc.....Hope it helps
Thanks
