Arab Multinational Force?
I ppurchased this badge after the firstGulf war, buying it , complete with beret, at a Leeds Arms Fair. No-one had any idea what it was/is, but I thought it might be a multinational unit from Arab countries.
It is a two-part badge, in brass and enamel. looks to be made in the U.S.A., since it has a single, cantral screw fastening and a locating pin at the (S) position.The badge is 40mm in diameter. Since buying the badge, I have seen no written or pictorial reference to such a unit and I wondered if any fellow-member could throw any light on this one? Anybody come across it before? |

Nice badge.
I have no idea what it might be but wonder why the PDRY - Yemen - is highlighted, or should that be lowlighted? Maybe there are variations with the other countries marked out. Again probably not much help but what colour was the beret? Eddie |

I've just realised this is the badge of the Gulf Cooperation Council. This Yemen is not highlighted but in fact excluded. Not sure if they have ever fielded a military force?
Ah yes - See: http://stinet.dtic.mil/oai/oai?verb=...fier=ADA378521 Eddie Last edited by Eddie Parks; 12-03-08 at 11:30 AM. |
