Attachment 46330 How's that?
Camoflauge? Closest guy's chin strap is in a wierd spot. He's either moving and it was swinging or it's stuck in the netting. Also, why only one guy with a bayonet attached?
We had a few guys that loved the idea of a bayonet. Most of us didn't want to get that close.
No doubt!
Sure looks like cammo and I think the double hook is just caught on the helmet netting.
Yeah, makes sense on the hook. But my comment about the camo was that it is not something you see regularly in the Army in Europe. I'm thinking.
Captured, repurposed German smock maybe.

I think the Camo suit in the picture is the same as what we saw previously (last 2 years) issued to and worn by USA combat engineers. There are pictures of them on this forum somewhere.
Personally, I wouldn't want to wander around in a free fire zone wearing items of captured uniform. I would suspect that there would be too great a risk of taking 'friendly fire' by a very nervous, trigger-happy replacements.
Yes , very limited issue to the 30th inf. division and an armored division. Looked very much like the USMC camo , but is not reversible . Was pulled due to 1 ) friendly fire and 2) didn't work so good if you were moving and we tended to be always moving ( attacking ) .
