andrew it is for sure, this is a welbike container used to drop welbikes to the airborne troops. I eager to know what you going to do with it, restoring or..
I am collecting airborne stuff for some 29 years now and have some containers my self. if you ever want to sell... maybe you want to think of me.
the parachute is attaced to the rings on the righthand side and on the other side there was a sort of cussion to soften the landing of the container on the ground. (see my pictures)
hope this helps.
cheers jaap
