The sacrifice of life is a huge sacrifice, there is only one that is more terrible, the sacrifice of honor

Amazing. Such variety of materials. Over time I have come to realize that all sorts of materials were tossed into the mix after 1942. This has been a truly enlightening thread. NH
Here are what I believe are the Bundeswehr type. Not sure on the year but they are unissued and they actually have 6 holes and not the 5 often seen.
Not as coarse a weave as some BW items ( compare with the unissued 1944 set in the last photos ) and still of very good construction akin to the TR set, but the roller buckle e-introduced and the longer straps added ( fatter ankles after the war ...... ) are the key identifiers IMO.
