Originally conceived for use by German forces during WWII, the Jerry Can's design proved to be so good that it was revers -engineered for use by the Allies. The 20-litre container was tough and compact, allowing them to be easily stowed aboard vehicles. It had a simple but effective lid mechanism with three handles.
