A shock resistant gasketing system (10) for a liquid container (11) has a resilent gasket (14), a base (12) which has an enclosed area (20) therein, and a cover (13). A rim (25) defines an opening (26) into the enclosed area (20). The rim (25) has a retaining wall groove (30) and a gasket seat (27) contiguous with the opening into the enclosed area (20) and continguous with the retaining wall groove (30). The cover (13) is affixable to the base (12) and closes the opening (26) when the cover (13) is affixed to the base (12). Latches (40) can secure the cover (13) to the base (12). The cover (13) has a retaining wall (50) structurally corresponding to the retaining wall groove (30) of the base (12), such that the retaining wall (50) fits within the retaining wall groove (30) when the cover (13) is affixed to the base (12). The gasket (14) is positioned on the gasket seat (27) and is impinged between the base (12) and the cover (13) when the cover (13) is affixed to the base (12).
