Expect to clean these up when you receive them. They've been in storage since 1945 or so. A little "Krud Cutter" (shameless plug) and elbow grease and you have a top quality mess kit. Thanks for providing a great product WPG.

British Mess Kit (9/25/2012)
My own particular brand of militaria collecting mental illness runs towards trying to collect every nation''s mess kit. So naturally I had to get the iconic British mess tin set. What Price Glory has the best price around, and I was able to get a mess kit marked "1945 MSS". After I got the protective grease off, the kit looks brand new. There is a small hole in the big pot, that leaks water rather fast. But I think a few taps with a ball peen hammer will close the hole well enough to use. Great mess kit, I cannot wait to use it camping/hiking.
