The backing is feldgrau, is this relevant to the M40, or should it be bottle green?
Feldgrau is relevant to Heer and black to the SS.
When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!

Cool. I thought I'd seen them in bottle green backing, but I guess that's M36.
Did you suss your zelt Kav ? ours have spinter on the external side and t & w on the inside, so its kinda obvious, that and the seams on the inner side give it away.
Got it sorted last night, and skirmished in it today, will post a few pics Shrek took of me.
Latest acquisitions:- Soldbuch and a water bottle courtesy of wazza. The bottle is a bit tatty, and it's a civvy one, but at a good price so I can't complain - just need to find out how to fill in the soldbuch now!
Bottle green backing for M36 uniform; feldgrau for M40 uniform, Kav. 
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
That's what I thought, Andy - will sew everything on when I have my new shoulderboards and litzen. Where exactly do I position the chevron - been looking on the internet for two days and still none the wiser. 
Erm.... somewhere on the left arm, mate! Check my jacket pic for details.

Believe it or not, I've looked at that too! You couldn't measure it for me (if it's still on there), could you?
Well, I didn't measure it mate! Approx is fine.

Yesterday I ordered 2 US M1917 Helmet liners and one complete restored one from Prairie Flower Leather Company.
And there's another load of Beef Jerky from Martin's on the way

One liner is to repair an British-made 1918-dated shell I've got. It will probably go to a new owner afterwards.
The other liner is for a friend of mine.
And the complete helmet is for my Doughboy impression.
