Nice photos, but that's a Gebirgsjaeger Windjacke (in Waffen SS Eichenlaub Tarnmuster) - not a Fallschirmjaeger "Knochensack".

I think you might have been confused by the fact that some of the Fallschirmjaeger photographed at Monte Cassino were wearing grey-green Mountain Troops jackets that they'd picked up somewhere.
