Splittermuster (splinter-pattern) was a four-colour military camouflage pattern developed by Germany in the late 1920’s, and was first issued to the Reichswehr in 1931. It was first printed on the newly designed and issued triangular tent/poncho called the dreieckszeltbahn. Known in German as Buntfarbenaufdruck (Colourful print) 31 for its year of introduction, splittermuster was issued on a very wide basis to practically all regular military (Wehrmacht) units. The pattern consists of a disruptive pattern of hard-edged wood-brown and medium green polygons printed on a light field-grey or tan background. A random pattern of green dashes, called raindrops, was applied in places to improve the camouflage effect.
