Default Sultan of Oman's Land Forces

Although I know a very little about SOLF badges, I have today received a whole pile of related stuff and some of it is beyond my personal knowledge.

Can anyone explain the differences between the three cap-badges in the attached image? They all have identical E-W loops.

Many thanks for any help and best regards to all.

The scroll under 1 stands for Gaysh Sultan Oman - Sultna of Oman's Army
under 2 is states Sutlan of Oman's armed Forces
under 3 stands for Quwat Sultan Oman Bareea. Sultan of Oman's naval Forces.

Default Oman Medals

For anyone interested in Oman medals, perhaps the attached images might be useful.

They are not the best quality scans, but the original is a large, beat-up and quite tatty poster; I scanned it several times on an A4 size scanner, then stitched together the resulting images.
