Quick Overview

This system provides a durable, 1-quart solution for personal water carriage in austere or field conditions. Its aluminum construction allows for the critical field-expedient task of water disinfection by boiling directly over a fire or stove.

Field Application Steps

Inspect canteen and cover for serviceability and fill with potable water before deployment.
Securely attach the system to load-bearing equipment using the integrated belt attachments.
For emergency disinfection, REMOVE THE CAP and boil water from an unimproved source for at least one minute.
Handle the canteen with extreme caution after heating, as the aluminum body will be scalding hot and cause severe burns.
After use, clean and thoroughly air dry the canteen with the cap off to prevent mold and bacterial growth.
