Mr. Bushido Posted August 12, 2023 Share #2 Posted August 12, 2023 Hi I know a little bit about the Korean military. This type was probably used in the 80's and 90's. ●Upper left (Owl holding a sword) This is written in an unusual way, "올빼미 수색대 (Owl Search Battalion)". I imagine it has something to do with "700특공연대 (Capital Corps 700th Special Attack Regiment)". ● Middle left (Pegasus and 5 parachutes) "5사단 수색대 (5th Division Search Battalion)". ●Lower left (Eagle grabbing the word "battle") "25사단 수색대 (25th Division Search Battalion)". ●Middle right (Lion jumping over mountains) "6사단 수색대 (6th Division Search Battalion)". *I don't know the other two types. In addition, there may be a problem with my translation, "Reconnaissance and Surveillance Unit" may actually be correct, as "Search Battalion" is a literal translation.

vintageproductions Posted August 12, 2023 Author Share #3 Posted August 12, 2023 Thank you. Usually these are recon units so that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
