Iraqi dpm camo paratrooper smock

These Iraqi DPM smocks are not of British origin, but manufactured solely for the Iraqi Army in the 1980's and early 1990's. They are common bringbacks from Desert Storm by Coalition Forces. Not a huge amount is known about these or who they were meant to be issued to, but it seems they were given to more elite units.

What is shown here is an earlier Iraqi DPM smock made in Romania. This type of smock was first seen in the Iran-Iraq War and it is of superior quality, something not seen in many Iraqi uniforms.

This is an interesting Iraqi DPM smock variant. It sports grey colored snaps and the bottom pockets are not slanted as much as the other smock types. It is also of thicker construction. These seem to be common bringbacks in mint condition so it is likely they were late 1980's made.
