“Canned water will last for decades.”

Ain’t that the truth. In our survival vests (Naval Aviation) we had two little cans of water that, I swear, came from just after WWII.

As long as you got the “hollow bong” when you slapped the bottom it was good to go!!

At least the government got it money’s worth on this buy!!!! LOL

Sounds like the perfect complement for the pre-WWII MRE.

I have a couple jerry cans from the 40’s in my basement.I guess they will do to store water. I always fill them up right before a major storm kicks up.
