The emergency ration kit for German Army Special Forces is sold at the Japanese auction.
http://page10.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/m68311677
They are a universal porch for the German Union Army genuine DSO veste 2000, and ration.
It will be the emergency ration for long range reconnaissance provided to the DSO Special-Forces member in 2000.

Ration box x2
drinking-water x2
match
others
Is this kit really equipment of Special Forces?
The price of it is 13,000 yen. (It is $122 about.)
Since it was very high, nobody bought it with two weeks of past.

Nice fake
The bag looks very similar to the german magazine pouch for two G3 magazines.

Yep, nice home made attempts of profiteering...
The pouch is some civial made "mil tec" crap. Genuine Bundeswehr bags never had that push buttons on the back. Also they had a printing inside the top cover with NSN, date of production etc...
Non of it is "DSO" (
Divison Spezielle Operationen = Special Operations Division )
Germany don´t has any "special unit rations". We have only
EPa and
EPa leicht. Two kinds of emergncy rations (green and orange) and that´s it.

Thank you for the information!
Description of the following of wiki is contradictory to a seller's explanation.
Division Special Operations was created in 2001 and composed of parts of Germany's late airborne division
The seller says that the kit was provided to the DSO member in 2000.

You see, another sellers phantasie to increase profit
Sellers use very often elite unit´s for their description.
I have DSO: -socks, -under wear, -toilett tissue, -tooth paste...
It´s the same equipment than every "normal" German soldier get too
