What is this weird thing?

This was found at a WW2 Military training base where I have found rations and land mine pieces, the black pieces in the middle I am pretty sure is old rubber, there is also a red band that is rubber on the outside. I have no idea what it is.

Thanks!

Only other thing is about a 1960s GM gas cap , while missing the outer cover lock ring.
My 63 vw gas caps pretty close, they all use a outer 3 tab twist cover rubber vent
and rubber/cork seal inside

Interesting!

Thanks!
