There are actually two variations of the 1935 Military holster. The most common has the maker mark on the back, WaA, and date, all in a line. Marked C. Henichen, Dresdan, WaA, 1935. The second and rarer variation is marked like a K-date holser inside, and marked Carl Henichen, Dresdan, WaA, and 1935. The 1935 military holsters are very hard to find, but not impossible as I have 5.

My thoughts are that most of the early G-date Lugers were issued with a 1934 holster, a few in the middle with 1935 dated holsters, and the later G-dates had the 1936 dated holsters.
