Ah, the rare European camo.
In urban scenes like this I'm always remind of the light moment in the movie, A Bridge Too Far, in which the Brit 1st Para arrive at the Arnhem bridge in the town. Taking cover in a house's door frame, Lt. Col. John Frost looks over at Major Harry Carlyle, nods at the de rigueur foliage in his helmet net, and says, 'You know, I do think we've chosen the wrong camouflage pattern. It's all fine and good for the forest, but I don't think it will do us a bit of good here in the city." Carlyle inquisitively and hilariously looks up and crosses his eyes in an attempt to see his own helmet.

If those guys could only have known what their camo gear would be worth in a few decades...still they likely would have chucked it.
