      It looks like a Dutch mess kit, but as far as i know those didn't had the belt loop on the back. Maybe its Belgium?
      I'm collecting anything related to the towns Castricum and Bakkum during WWII.
      Also soldbucher from 116pzdiv. And 1944-1945 eastfront pockets, kampfgruppe and Oder front.

        100 % certified DUTCH pre 1940 mess tin .. ! The loop is not for a belt or strap , but for the detachable handle .

          The handle would be stored inside the tin , clamped underneath the lid with the flat angle end ( top of pic. ) , to avoid rattling . A hinged handle would of course have been a better solution , since nowadays most of these handles are missing ..
