Water bucket, colapsable

Post by Jim »

At the Little Rock, DA, National Convention I
saw numerous vehicles with colapsable water
buckets on the jerrycan on the rear. Would this
be correct for an M38? If so, where are these to
be obtained?

Anything carried on a jeep in WWII was at some point eventually carried on an M38. This is especially true of M38's used in Korea during the war up thru Sep 1953.

You can find these bucketrs at most surplus dealers.

What are the dimensions of a correct water bucket strapped to a jeep?
