This combat shirt was issued to The National People's Army of East Germany for over 30 years. Starting in 1968, they were manufactured and issued up until 1990. The Rain Camo pattern (Strichmuster) was influenced by WW2 German designs such as Splittermuster and Sumpftarn. "Rain" refers to the camouflage pattern, this is not a waterproof shirt.

Issued to the NVA (Nationale Volksarmee) as a 'summer' shirt, though the fabric remains moderately heavy weight and rugged. The name is used to differentiate these from the winter shirts with liners. For storage on these shirts, you get two button down chest pockets. Two more button down pockets sit on either sleeve. Attachment of a liner is possible with buttons around and below the collar. The shirt features a button up front with storm flap and adjustable cuffs. A nice piece for a collector of Cold War era gear or combine it with more Strichmuster clothing for a complete airsoft uniform.
