I'm still experimenting with the colours, shades and home-made magic wash.<br />The next batch will be a bit lighter.<br /><br />Zeltbahn is the German equivalent of a part of a tent. An American soldier did have half a tent, so 2 soldiers could make a complete tent. The Germans however had a quarter of a tent, which was also usable as a poncho, and had a specific camouflage pattern on it. The name Zeltbahn was later a synonym for the camouflage pattern. Zeltbahn means literally tentstrip. <br />(And they only had a quarter of a tent, because the German Army reconed that half the men would always be awake and on duty. A hot bunk principle).Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041477851709101151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4229511621687283776.post-76985857320863438312011-01-20T18:47:30.328+01:002011-01-20T18:47:30.328+01:00Dude!!!
