Taiwanese Mess Kit Info

Post by elkabong » Sun Apr 03, 2016 6:53 pm

Dear MRE Info,

Does anyone have photos or info about the Taiwanese military (Republic of China) mess kit? I have family looking for one in Taiwan and they don't know what to look for.

Thanks,
elkabong

Tagging to see what pops up. I love my Phillipines kit, but would be interested to see.

I searched but could not find anything except older pre war or WW 2 KMT mess kits.
They looked to be the same as German, Russian or other European kits. I can't find any photos of what they used from the 1960's on.
I am going to keep looking.

This is a WW 2 era KMT (Nationalist) mess kit

Wow, thanks very much. I'll see if I can get my hands on one. I wonder what the modern kit looks like.
