otter Posted August 3, 2021 Share #1 Posted August 3, 2021 Picked this up last week at the SOS show in Louisville. Can anyone tell me what unit this designation may stand for? Indian wars vintage? Spanish-American war? The canteen appears to be a 1878 model. Hope its Indian wars era as it's headed to Tucson, Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinO Posted August 3, 2021 Share #2 Posted August 3, 2021 Co F 1st infantry, roster number 54. Could be any number of state units, and thus in use from any point between 1880 to 1920ish. It's a true smooth sided canteen with no third lower loop at the bottom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otter Posted August 4, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted August 4, 2021 Thanks Austin- No smooth sides, Both sides of the canteen are concave. No third lower loop on the bottom. -Otter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
