When army flasks appeared in Russia, and why did Soviet soldiers have them wrinkled .

When army flasks appeared in Russia, and why did Soviet soldiers have them wrinkled

The human body is designed in such a way that it can do without food from one week to a month. But here without water only three days. For this reason, in ancient times, when people went on a long journey, they took a lot of water with them. The first analogues of flasks appeared in the 6th century BC - people dried pumpkins in the manner of a bucket and poured water inside. Later, people began to use wooden flasks, leather bags, sewn animal skins.

The Greeks were the first to make metal flasks. Rich people had silver flasks decorated with heroes of Greek myths, while ordinary soldiers and military men carried bronze or copper ones. It is curious that in the first few centuries, each soldier chose his own flask according to the size: some took a small half-liter, and \"water drinkers\" could stock up on a three-liter flask. It was not until the end of the 18th century that flasks were standardized in many armies and came with uniforms.

In Russia, the first metal flasks were introduced under Peter I. Then they were cast from double tin and, although they were very durable, they weighed a lot. For some time, tin was replaced by sheet iron, and from the end of the 19th century, by aluminum. This metal attracted the attention of the authorities because of its lightness and cheapness. However, such a flask also had a significant disadvantage: they often wrinkled. Why this happened, the author of the video below will tell you. By the way, German soldiers used enameled steel flasks for a long time. So they were heavier, but stronger. However, the Germans even wore a holster on the other side than the Russian soldiers, which we talked about in this material.

The rounded aluminum flask is so convenient that no one has changed its material, shape or volume since the First World War, which is 0.7 liters. In addition, a cover began to be attached to the flask. It was not only equipped with a long strap for comfortable carrying over the shoulder, but also with a durable fabric that could keep the flask hot or cold for a long time. Often during hot weather, soldiers would dip their flasks into the cold spring water to make the material icy. So the pure water in the flask cooled down !
