If you're looking at a temporary airstrip, then the tents would probably be made from the standard shelter quarters (zeltbahn) buttoned together in groups of 4. Each soldier was issued with a shelter quarter & when 4 were attached together it made a tent for 4 soldiers. They could be attached in larger numbers to make bigger tents. But on any kind of semi-permanent airfield tents would be quickly replaced by pre-fabricated or brick buildings as in other countries.

Tamiya makes a set of paper tents, two different colors. One german and one american.

Hi Alan,
I meant that I never saw tents with this pattern in real life.
I could open the link.

Sorry it took so long to come back, I found these a couple of years ago while googling on one of those German ww2 sites but sadly lost all links.
I followed link after link and suddenly came to rest on these patterns etc.
