Need help! Broomhandle strange markings

:shok_yikes:Hi! I am in possession of an early broomhandle 7.63 that has two weird markings that I cannot find any reference for. The left side has the large Mauser banner but the spelling has the "S" in Mauser reversed.
The right side has the following: "WAFFENFABRIK MUSAER
OBERNDORF AF NECKAR" the AF is sort of stuck together. The only serial number I can find is on the left side behind the step on the barrel and only four digits remain. There is a hint of another number but it is worn beyond recognition. I hope someone can help me identify this piece. Thanks in advance,

WW2 US experimental camo smock

Is there any knowledge about this camo pattern? It is said it is a US WW2 experimental design. Probably not issued in any numbers.

It was used, on a small scale in the late forties, by Dutch paratroops in the former Netherlands East Indies, now Indonesia.

I believe it was closed up with a lace and was manufactured with rather thin material.

Thanks for reacting.

Cheers,
Emile
