Soviet VDV Canteen mess kit desalination hack concept.
This canteen was designed for the Soviet Navy in the 1960s and eventually was transfered to the VDV paratroopers and some advertise also Spetznatz. My canteen if in the original case was made in 1979 but aside from oxidation and stress all remain more or less the same production from the Leningrad Factory, each piece is stamped or engraved with the KB or like symbol. While this kit is advertised as also allowing distilling desalination no tube or pipe is supplied. It may be that some other kit like a properly sized smoking pipe filled that roll. Since I didn't have any examples other than the crude picture of how to desalinate with it I after reading that a wine bottle cap can fit on it thought I could make a point for a silicone tube by putting a hole in the wine bottle cap. While I could add a rubber wine brewing grommet or cork, I felt this would be the easiest solution. In a pinch it seems a camelpak water tube can be used not only as the distilling tube but also as a straw for drinking liquids through. i even imagine it might hook up to gas masks that have a drinking tube. Note most of these come covered in cosmoline that can be a bit of effort.Also I found copper flange also fits into the canteen and could work with copper pipe. But the silicone tubing was the easiest solution that showed itself note though silicone can melt about 300 degrees so this should be kept from overheating in the fire but it can support a steam producing temperature
