The
National People's Army were the armed forces of the German Democratic Republic
(GDR) from 1956 to 1990.
The NVA was organized into four branches: the Landstreitkräfte (Ground Forces), the Volksmarine (Navy), the Luftstreitkräfte (Air Force) and the Grenztruppen (Border Troops). The NVA belonged to the Ministry of National Defence and commanded by the National Defense Council of East Germany, headquartered in Strausberg 30 kilometers (19 mi) east of East Berlin. From 1962, conscription was mandatory for all GDR males aged between 18 and 60 requiring an 18-month service, and it was the only Warsaw Pact military to offer non-combat roles to conscientious objectors, known as "construction soldiers" (Bausoldat). The NVA reached 175,300 personnel at its peak in 1987.
Produced
between 1965 and 1968, and in use for several years thereafter, the first type
Strichmuster (line pattern) is a very simple pattern incorporating long,
slender brown rain straits on a light greyish-green background. The
"rain" theme was common with many Warsaw Pact nations (Poland,
Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria) and was probably influenced by WW2 German designs such
as Splittermuster and Sumpftarn. This is generally referred to as 1st Type East
German strichtarn.
A second type Strichmuster design was introduced in 1968. This version differed from the original in having thicker brown rain straits on a greyish-green background. In production until the collapse of the DDR in 1990, numerous types of uniform, shelter half, helmet cover, field cap, field equipment and even a special airborne trooper fighting vest were produced in this pattern. This camouflage was also worn in Africa by insurgent groups, particularly in Angola and South West Africa.
