I do know someone in Jersey who has a German jerrycan on his vehicle. It was 'aquired' by his farther during the Occupation, so captured jerycans are quite allowable!

 

I have a German Jerrycan on my Dodge, guess they would have used what they could get.

Apparently when the Allies went in on D Day they had about 7,000,000 Jerrycans, by the time of Market Garden, they could only find 3,000,000. So whatever was about was used. I've two that came back from Normandy last year, having been there since 1944. They are sand coloured and always have been.
