Default Markings on ammo crate

Hi guys,
Any of you familiar with the markings on this ammo crate?
I presume the 6 is the class of explosives?
Any help is much appreciated!

Default Markings

The number 6 is the Ammunition Group marking and the nice Maple Leaf decal with Canada in English, Russian and Chinese is the wartime mutual aid marking.

It looks like you have one of these H-50-C metal ammunition boxes.

Hi Ed,
That’s exactly what I’ve got! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, I wasn’t quite sure what the writing/languages were.
I appreciate the help!
