Strichtarn gas mask bag
Guten Tag zusammen! I'm visiting this page due to my (unique?) strichtarn accessory wich is a gas mask in the common NVA pattern and mostly because I'm still quite of a rookie in reconstructions. My first full body wich I decided to do is a regular Schütze. At the moment, I have a jacket, trousers, suspenders with a belt and that bag, although everytime I see a profile of a regular soldier it's with a grey rubbery one. I've read that camouflage bag is really rare and barely seen, never really widely issued. So my question is; would it be a problem to use it for the profile? And how rare it actually is, because to some sites it's almost a unicorn like. Is the one I have even real???
(I got it from my uncle, who was not part of the NVA, although was a conscript of the Warsaw Pact)
