Usage examples of "messtin".
Vaska Shmakov greeted me with a friendly shout, drawing his sleeve across his perspiring face after draining a messtin of hot water.
I ran off to fetch some water, hung the messtin up on a ramrod laid across the fire between two bayonets stuck into the ground, and moved up to the wounded man.
The milk boiled over and instantly put out the fire before I could snatch the messtin off the coals.
Soldiers passed by, horses neighed, messtins clanked near the field kitchen.
