In Vietnam WE had a stove that we called "TANKER STOVE"
The stove was about the size of a pineapple and it came in a aluminum casing which also served as cooking pots. - IT BURNED EVERYTHING -- The fuel was contained in a container at the bottom of the stove --it had a small hand pump built in --only a few pushes on it pressurized the container and you where ready to go --it would burn for hrs on one small load of fuel -- we guarded it with our lives. I still have one over 40 years latter. Coleman makes a stove similar to it.
ED - Rex, I think the stove you are referring to is this one pictured here. It's the M1950 Squad stove. As you describe, it comes in a two piece aluminum container which also serve as pots. The stove will run white gas, MOGAS, and leaded and unleaded gasoline.
