It's Moiré patterning, the same effect as you observe if you look through the folds of lacy curtains or gauze. Just a coincidence that the spacing of the weave in the focussed image is almost the same as the pixle spacing in your camera. If you try the same photo at a slightly different range or magnification, it will disappear.

Thanks for the explanation, I was thinking it might be some sort of infrared camo pattern when I first saw it but that wouldn't make sense for WWII.

I hate sidetracking the topic but is that the same thing that happens when you take a photo of a television set screen?
