Unknown Iraqi Arc Pin

[Chief D]

Looking to identify. Thanks for any help. Military? Police?

[Allan H.]

The literal translation of this arc is "Thunderbolt." I would ASSUME that it is meant to be associated with being some sort of shock troop, or perhaps rapid deployment. This arc could also be police and not specifically military, though most police forces have a quasi-military status.

 

I hope this helps!

Thanks Allan. I appreciate your input. That gives me a starting point. I have searched Iraqi police and military arc previously to no results. You have helped. Best regards.

Thanks Allan. I appreciate your input. That gives me a starting point. It looks like a manufacturing stamp on the back upper right corner. Does this look familiar to you? I have searched Iraqi police and military arc previously to no results. You have helped. Best regards.
