G.I. pocket stove

The G.I. pocket stove is a World War II–era portable pressurized-burner liquid-fuel stove made by the Coleman Company of Wichita, Kansas.
== History ==

During World War II, the U.S. government tasked Coleman to develop a compact stove for military use. The stove had to be lightweight, no larger than a quart-sized thermos bottle, burn any kind of fuel, and operate in weather from −60 to +125 °Fahrenheit.〔B. Tanner, "Coleman Created Stove to Fill G.I.s’ Needs," Wichita Eagle, Page 1E, Aug. 8, 1995.〕 Within 60 days, Coleman came up with what became the G.I. Pocket Stove.〔W.F. McDermott, “The Triumph of W.C. Coleman,” in The Rotarian Magazine, Vol. 78, No. 6 (Dec. 1950), p. 29.〕 Designated the Model 520 Coleman Military Burner,〔Coleman Lamp and Stove Co., “Operating Instructions for Coleman Military Burner Model 520 (Apr. 1944).〕 the stove first saw service in November 1942 when 5,000 of the stoves accompanied U.S. forces during the invasion of North Africa.〔 Over 1 million of the stoves were produced for war use,〔G. Winegar, “Coleman Shining Example of Outdoors Ingenuity,” Richmond Times-Dispatch, Page D11, July 7, 2001.〕〔 where it won high praise in the field: Ernie Pyle ranked it just behind the Jeep” in its usefulness.〔R. Cole, "Chairman Offers to Buy Coleman," New York Times, Page D1, Feb. 15, 1989.〕
By the end of the war, Coleman began production of a civilian version of the Model 520, designated the Model 530, and advertised as the "G.I. pocket stove."〔Coleman advertisement “Born of War – You’ll Use It For Fun,” in Popular Mechanics Magazine, Vol. 84, No. 4, p. 6A (Oct. 1945).〕 The Model 530 was promoted by Coleman as the “perfect pal for hunting, fishing and camping trips” that would “slip easily into a hunting coat pocket, glove compartment of a car, or corner of () picnic hamper.” The single-burner G.I. Pocket Stove was only manufactured between 1946 and 1949; afterwards Coleman did not manufacture another single-burner, non-military backpacking stove until 1972. Larger single-burner stoves continued production starting with the 500 Sportster.
