Hello,
it is similar to the Erbsentarnmuster, but not identical.

It is the so called "Fleckerlteppich" of Austria from the early 60s.

best regards

And also Pattex for that info!

Keeping up with the Austrian vets: Konrad Tinkhauser, during the 60's.

Many of them wore their wartime decorations.

Did the post war Austrian Army wear the 1957 ribbon bars?
