    Description / History:
    This model is known as the Canteen, Water, Collapsible, 2 Quart. After the deficiencies of the First Pattern 2-Quart Collapsible Canteen became evident, the Canteen, Water, Collapsible, 2 Quart was approved in December 1965 and funded in 1967. After evaluation of prototypes in Vietnam, the new canteen was standardized 11 Oct 1968 and was widely fielded in 1969. In 1991, troops serving in the Gulf War were issued this canteen, in both olive green and desert tan for both the canteen body and the carrier. It remained in use into the 21st century when the CamelBak canteen alternativegradually came into general use.
