Guest IMHF Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Iraqi Republican Guard Insignia Baghdad, Divisions “God is Great” Forces Baghdad Divisions were a light Republican Guard Unit, the Insignia was worn on both sides of the uniform. Their mission was to protect Baghdad, from all opposing forces in the attempt of an Invasion. You can see with the success of Operation Iraqi Freedom the Baghdad Republican Guard Division was not able to fulfill their obligation to Saddam’s Government. -After the Defection of Hussein Kamel many of Iraq’s forces of the Republican Guard were divided and the military was reorganized. From 1995-2003 the Iraqi Republican Guard had a tremendous growth of its forces. I added 4 sets of these to my collection a few days ago, I recived them from a dealer out of Baghdad, Iraq Lorenzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
