Wehrmacht Mess Kit M31 (Kochgeschirr 31). The 'Kochgeschirr 31' was introduced on 23 March 1931. This is a nice original late war aluminum and steel construction mess kit. The mess kit is maker marked and dated 'DMN44' indicating production in 1944. The mess kit still retains almost all of its original darker olive-green paint. The mess kit is in uncleaned condition as found. Nice original example in good used condition!
