- Inspiration
- The jerry can be designed back in 1937, to contain supplies for the armies. The allies nicknamed the Germans, Jerries, as slang for German. As the small Einheits-kanister was a German invention - thereby the name a jerry can. The allies duplicated the design and just before D-day in 1944 more than 21 million of Jerry cans were made. "Without these cans, it would have been impossible for our armies to cut their way across France at a lightning pace during the German blitz”. - President Roosevelt
