Default Middle eastern?
Arabic Beret badge.jpg

Going by the Arabic script on the badge this beret was UK produced by CW HEADDRESS LTD for a middle eastern contract the beret is navy blue and has the same nylon sweat band as fitted to the 1980s KANGOL berets issued to the British army. Does anyone have any ideas what country and or unit.
Thanks in advance
Graham

Sorry, I am not an expert. But Qatari police is wearing a black beret with a quite similar badge

Certainly Qatar, the police and military wear the same badge, police in white medal, army in brass/gilt.

Hi Eddie
Is this possibly a police private purchase or for a commissioned officer in the police.
Thanks
Graham
