    That is pretty cool. The US has similar jugs but not for the military. They were in common use for civilians before my time. My parents have one that's probably 5 gallon size. As a kid, I remember taking the cork out of it and smelling it. It had a strong smell similar to pickles. I've always wanted one but they are rather expensive if in perfect condition and who wants a busted one.
