AntoniaTiger-
I was going to reply with the same thought, the three handle model was what I remember from my days in the army, ours didn't have as pronounced a seam though, nor the X depression, and it had a larger screwed-off cap with a chain retainer. The name "jerry can", incidently, indicates where the pattern came from, the Brits started WWII with some kind of an awful, flimsey gas can, in the desert campaigns they became aware of the far superior German type which they copied.

Amazing that we are even having this discussion, too. Many of Poser military models I've seen are so far off the mark that they shouldn't even be called by the prototype's name, my hat is off to the creators of this half track, and I'd only hope they would offer the every-popular quad fifty mounting for it as an extra! Talk about firepower!
