I can guarentee that both types of these goggles were used by AFV and MT crew-man. Both types normaly have rabbit fur sealing pieces, and both types come in tinted and plain versions. Also as already stated, the D shaped ones are the early pattern being seen in use as early as 1940 in France, and the other pattern are the most common in N. W. Europe.
The material from which the side pieces are made can vary including a leather like material, but these are the two standard patterns for the British Army between 1939-45.
