Default OBGW-2 Iraq

Does anyone have a crystal clear close up photograph showing this OBGW-2 Iraq patch actually being worn?

Its certainly an unofficial patch. I've never seen pics of it being worn but thats not to say it wasn't worn on a brassard or just made in Iraq as a souvenir of the deployment.

Many non-official patches were worn by diggers outside the wire in Afghanistan, especially SOTG. Don't know about Iraq.
