Welcome to the board! Your English is just fine.
Thanks for the input. Your point about the similarities between the various WARPACT "raindrop" pattern camo uniforms is a good one.
Since, by '96, most front line W. German units would certainly have been issued the Flektarn pattern cammies, there would probably be plenty of surplus Steingrau-oliv fatigues lying around to equip front line units of the former GDR army. There'd probably be a few units where you'd see a mix-and-match assortment of Flektarn and OD.
I agree on the G-11 being gradually abandoned in favor of the G-3 with many former GDR units sticking with the locally produced AKM.
I know that in some folks' T2K universe, the Bundeswher was also starting to transition to the more conventional 5.56mm G-36 as of '96 or so. I've also encountered the 5.56mm version of the G-3 (HK-33) in German service in some games as well.
