Surplus aluminum canteens

Hi, does anyone else use old surplus water bottles or canteens? I picked up two old ones for myself (a Swedish M31 and a Soviet VDV canteen). both are made of aluminum

I use a Swedish stainless steel mess kit because I prefer not to cook in aluminum.

I really love the vintage look and design of these bottles.

I was wondering if it might be possible to apply some kind of coating to them—perhaps anodizing? Has anyone tried that?

What suggestions or good advice would you give, considering I plan to keep and use these? For instance, how could I coat the insides? Of course, the safest option would be to just throw them away, but I’m just foolish enough to be in love with vintage items.

I don't go hiking very often—maybe 3–4 times a year on trips lasting about 2–3 days.

Hey I'm looking for good tank simulators, I like it if the game has modeled interiors, and the game is not just a 3rd person arcade game where you control everything. I like it when there are other NPCs/other players in the tank. The tank has the right command chains for how the tank works.

example: steel beasts: Steel Armor

But its graphics are very outdated and there is not much to play in the game.

I'm I'm looking forward to the release of Aces & Armour its looks good new game

I don't like the game War thunder because it feels bland, souless, all the tanks are the same, you're alone in the car and the interiors aren't modeled.

I like it when the machines/hardware inside are actually in use.
