ASP PRESENTS:
USMC Canteens and Covers through the early 20th century.

The M1910 canteen, cup, and cover was a drastic new design. It was self-contained and hung on the back of the belt. It held one quart of water. Two canteens could easily be carried on each hip. They would stay in service for most of the twentieth century until it was eventually replaced with Camelbacks and water bladder packs.
