This piece of camouflaged material could be combined with three other to make a proper tent, or other quantities to construct shelters of various sizes, it was also used for camouflage, as a poncho or even a stretcher. Ours comes with reversible German Army Splinter pattern and holes with buttons to put two or more together just like the originals.
