German NVA Mess Tin

This NVA (Eastern Germany army) mess kit is based on the same concept as Bundeswehr (Western Germany army) counterpart of the same Cold War period.

German Bundeswehr Mess Tin

Just like a Bundeswehr canteen I've described earlier, this Western Germany mess kit predates reunification of Germany and totally kicks ass if you compare it's quality and attention to details to similar designs of Cold War era. And just like that canteen, this one is also one of my favorites.
