Description: You are bidding on a NICE example of a WW2 British Army / Navy / Air Force M-Pattern 1937 Steel Mess Kit! A mess kit is a collection of silverware and cookware designed for use by military personnel for food and military rations. While functionally similar to a one-man civilian mess kit, military mess kits are designed to be even more compact, using their space as efficiently as possible. Thus lids will almost always be used for preparing, cooking, and/or eating, and usually come in two or three pieces. As such, it may sacrifice certain features, or use other features to complement it. When in a large camp, it is common for soldiers to use either normal dining ware, or a multi-compartment mess tray similar to a TV dinner tray, but much larger. Made of mild steel, this mess kit half is in NICE used condition! Though there are some marks, scratches, and slight wear due to the age, it is still very solid! Dated 1943, with the manufacture stamp "MB". Would make a FANTASTIC addition to any collection or display!
