Wehrmacht Mess Kit M31 (Kochgeschirr 31). The 'Kochgeschirr 31' was introduced on 23 March 1931. This is a nice original aluminum and steel construction mess kit. The lid is marked with 'A.W.G. 434' which indicates production by the company of 'Albert Wildfang' from Gelsenkirchen in April 1934. The mess kit still retains some of its original fieldgrey paint. The mess kit is in uncleaned condition as found. Rare early longer type mess kit in good used condition!
