    KM fatigue jacket hbt-two types

    would anyone be kind enough to confirm whether KM troops were issued two types of fatigue jacket-in oatmeal hbt material?
    i ask as the two show are same basic style (and size) but modelled differently. one has distinctive sailor collar, the other not. as can be seen the hbt cloth finish varies between the two.
    are these both bonifide KM wear? or is one an HJ equivalent? both have sizings, one per attached label, the other per stamp to rear outside neck. that aside, the only markings are cloth bolt numbers pencilled inside.
    thanks very much in advance for your help.

                  I have typically seen these in white and would be interested in any input as well.

                    According to Angolia and Schlicht's KM book (Vol. 1) such work shirts (and tackle Rigs) came in white or gray moleskin
                    but (later?) also Blue HBT and also "Grau Arbeitsbluse" = gray-green ...
                    No mention of of oatmeal color... A typical color for other branches (like WH, RAD) drillich-fatigue uniforms...
                    I like the cut and believe these to be just another variation for KM work and fatigue dress.
                    Check out the book just in case I missed something!
