The first one says "Chemical, Petroleum, Mining and Quarry Trade Union" (translated going off the Latin initials; the Arabic says General Syndicate rather than "Trade Union"(
The second one says "Air Defense Technical Secondary [School]".

Hello everyone!
As you can tell from my user name, I am extremely interested in anything related to King Zog I's Albanian monarchy, especially militaria and heraldry/flags. As you might know, there is very little information available about this topic. Here are some of the items I have been able to find after exhaustive online searches:
"A Very Rare Gold-Hilted Officer's Sword Commemorating The Marriage Of King Zog I Of Albania" , a Skanderbeg helm cap badge, a dress belt that was posted in this forum by user "Tea Rex" on the 16th of December 2011, and a mock up of King Zog's epaulette and cap badge as Marshal of the Royal Albanian Army by user "Sitmar-orke" on the uniforminsignia.org forum on the 5th of June 2014. This along with photographs, screenshots from videos, and short written descriptions from R. Spencer Kidd's "Military Uniforms in Europe 1900 - 2000" and and the great Knotel's "Uniforms of the World" of the general style of uniforms and the waffenfarbe of the different services.
Does anyone have any more information or images of miltaria from Zog's Kingdom of Albania?
Regards,
Mohamed.

Wow, what an interesting piece? Any idea what country it's from? I've never seen that coat of arms before, but the supporters and the palm tree and two stars make me think Hashemite Iraq?
Maybe an earlier prototype design??
