Jawohl! Mein Herr!
Ich haben ein "dwc" gestampen unt der "41" gestamped gastanken can!
Ach zo, Luca, is there a difference between the DWC and the dwc marked cans Mien Kamerad?
I have one on the back of the '42 GPW and it is really easy to find in a row of jeeps as mine is a light Feldgrau (actually just some light grey primer I found). the 4/24/42 has a Field Installed properly marked "B 42....." mount on it so I figured the German can would be a nice touch for it.
I assume your post of "DWC" was meant to be "dwc" anyway, ja?

German can
I have one dated 1942. The maker mark is a triangle with what looks like the letters LSA intertwined. "Wehrmacht" marked, also.
