Since Gene has seen fit to start the Jerry Can thread
again.....

I was in my local Pep Boys auto parts store last week
and saw a brand new red plastic 5-Gallon fuel
container that said USMC on the side. It also had the
"Blitz" trademark on it.

So, has the US Metal Can company moved into the
plastic industry or has the US Marine Corps started
selling plastic fuel containers commercially?
