Original U.S. WWII U.S.M.C. Water Bladder Collapsible Canteen Carrier - Empty Crimean War the 5th Armored advanced 80Original Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of the carrier used for the U. S. Marine Corps 5 gallon collapsible "water bladder" style canteen. Having adequate water in the field was always a problem, however bulky canteens were not optimal for moving larger quantities of water. The collapsible canteen was lightweight and took up very little space when empty, so they were great for transporting water back from fresh water sources.
