I think you're right about the shell casing being used as a gas alarm. Metal on metal was a standard gas alarm before there were automatic detectors and alarms.

The Soldier is looking down into a trench - as other people have pointed out, the canister is a bell made from a shell as a gas alarm.

Very nice. I like its pose -- probably surveying the havoc he has brought about.
