A camp water runner moving along the overpass - plastic jerrycan in one hand, military-pattern canteen slung at the belt, walking pose. The lowest-rank job and the most important. Period: near-future apocalypse.
Water collection is the recurring task that defines life in any improvised camp. The figure carries the universal modern containers - 20L poly jerrycan plus a slung canteen for the run.
