1949 M sátorlap-esögallér camouflage
People's Republic of Hungary

After World War II, the reorganised Democratic Army introduced the 1949 M sátorlap-esögallér (M49 shelter half). The camouflage pattern displayed on this item was essentially the same as that of the 1938 M sátorlap-esögallér ('M38 shelter half') — green and red-brown shapes on a light tan background — except that the hard edges were burred.

This camouflage pattern became the 'national' Hungarian camouflage pattern, and remained in use until 1995.
