Rectangular metal military trunk painted in dark olive green, reinforced with metal corner brackets and riveted edges. The trunk features three front latches, including a central lock mechanism, and a leather handle. Inside, the trunk is lined with green-painted panels and is stencilled with the manufacturer’s mark on the underside of the lid.
Exterior stencils and labels identify the owner as Lieutenant Colonel G.L. Coady, Canadian Forces Base Ottawa. The trunk shows evidence of multiple layers of painted-over labels, likely reflecting repeated military transport use.
