Good points. Note that these soldiers don't wear GDR-NVA helmets, though, but some other helmet type. I presume, German Bundeswehr leadership would try to change fatigues as fast as possible, to reduce fratricide, if former NVA soldiers fight on both sides. The helmets would probably go first and soldiers be given the Bundeswehr M1 version. Minor items might be retained for some time and at some point the war just dictates everything.
