Regulation helmet cover for the Officer candidate and the soldier at the background.
Ostfront
In the Bundesarchiv, this photo is 1941 dated....but if there were M43 Feldblusen, 2nd type sumpfmuster smock, regulation helmets covers and M42 helmets at this time, i think collectors would know it...
Most probably 1944

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
