Unusual camo field pack ?

[Mark K]

I was at are local flea market on Sunday and came upon a few pieces I believe this pack and attached Y straps are not western but European possibly Post war German,Austrian, or Finnish but I could not find an appropriate thread to run them in. If any one out there could help me ID the country of origin the type of camo pattern and the time frame for production It would be of a great help as I can not find any examples on the forum.

Any thoughts on the time frame of issue Chris

[Adrian Stevenson]

Chris is correct.

Late 1960's through to the fall of the DDR in 1989.
