I believe this is a Chinese NVA (North Vietnamese Army) canteen with strap. I have not seen this one before and this is my best guess on this canteen. Worn condition. Additional Notes: The North Vietnamese Army (NVA), officially known as the People’s Army of Vietnam (PAVN), was the military force of North Vietnam during the Vietnam War. Established to combat the South Vietnamese government and its U.S. allies, the NVA was characterized by its discipline, organization, and dedication to the communist cause. It played a crucial role in the conflict, evolving from the Vietnam Liberation Army and significantly influencing the war’s outcome. The NVA’s strategies and operations were integral to the broader efforts of the North Vietnamese in their fight against foreign intervention and for national reunification.
