Good question ,longer storyy,
we never could get the t-shirts quite right,but the uniforms and gear were traded direct for western items.Then eventually they wet from asking for Dr. Pepper and levis to the new green tip 5.56 rounds we just got to chemical resistant paint.
That when all list were turned in to intel and the guys with the suits came in.
It was all a mess from Turkish flea markets to a small surplus store near potsdamer platz i beleive (been awhile)where 2 Senior Leutenants would meet in a black soviet liason car.
It was Cold War fun at its best.At one point we met a guy no name at his apartment and ended up with 3 big black garbage bags of every mix of Soviet gear and items.
Alot did end up in Bad Tolz. Seems time i posted some paper work here hahaha.
