German Afrika Korps - DAK Zeltbahn / French Military Zeltbahn Shelter Quarter. The Boss says I have too many toys. That and I'm very limited on space for what I do have. So I need to sell off a few of my treasures.
Up for your consideration are original issue French military Zeltbahn Shelter Quarters. These Zelts are made in the same pattern as a WWII German Zeltbahn. And just like a German Zelt, there is a hole for your head when used as a rain poncho. In fact they will button-up to an original German Zelt.These Zelts are a Khaki/Tan color on both sides. They are similar to the German DAK/Afrika Korps Zelts. The rare tan color Zelt was issued to German soldiers serving in Africa and the Mediterranean. They are perfect to complete your WWII Afrika Korps impression. One (1) Zelt is a shelter Quarter for a 4-man tent.
Four (4) Zelts are buttoned together to make one full tent. Or, just use as a rain poncho. Used military surplus and show storage and use. Their overall condition is great. Zelts may have minor variations in color. May have sewn on buttons, riveted buttons, or a combination of both. May or may not have minor stains from storage/us. Tent poles and pegs are unavailable and not included. The Zeltbahn was a multi-purpose piece of equipment that was issued to every soldier at the beginning of his basic training. This simple but ingenious item could be combined to make tents or shelters of various sizes, for all sorts of camouflage and as a rain cape, an improvised floatation device or an emergency stretcher. HDv 205/1 issued on 20 April 1932 with an amendment in 1937 specified how the. 31 was to be used. Now's your chance to own these great Zelts. So if you're looking for that piece to complete your tropical impression, or if you just want something unusual, here's your chance. Get them while you can. You know what I want to hear.
