A Water Ration Can is a sealed tin of emergency drinking water. It keeps drinking water on hand when other supplies run short. The can must be opened before the water can be drunk.

A sealed can keeps indefinitely, so it is a reliable reserve for a long stay. A Can Opener, a Sharp Knife or a Chipped Stone will open it. Water ration cans turn up only in old army buildings.

Cooking


Opening the can is the only preparation it needs. The Open Water Ration Can recipe uses any can opener, which is kept. The Open Water Ration Can with Blade recipe uses a sharp knife instead, and the knife is kept too. A Chipped Stone also works, which helps when no proper tool is at hand.

Six cans can be packed into a Box of Water Ration Cans with the Pack 6 Cans of Food in Box recipe. Opening such a box gives the six cans back, which makes a stock easier to move.

Storage


A sealed water ration can keeps indefinitely. It can sit on a shelf for as long as needed and still hold clean water. Its weight of 0.8 is the main cost of carrying a supply.

Locations


Water ration cans are a rare find limited to old army buildings. Lockers there hold them about one time in twenty. Other storage and counters in the same buildings hold them a little less often. A search through every locker in an old army site gives the best chance of finding them.
