Default Munitions Canteens

Here are the canteen badges I previously mentioned.

The Coventry one is clearly WW1, and I'm guessing that the others are also.

Anyone got any thoughts on the meaning of "R.D.S"? The "S" is bound to be "Service" but "R. D"?

Hope you appreciate the spoon that came with a badge I think. Tempted to give it a good clean and eat with it....

Those old signs "Don't nick the spoons!" clearly weren't obeyed.... no more than the order to return badges that no longer served their purpose!
