Lion101 Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 Hello everyone, I pick up this patch sometime ago and I was wondering what it say. I really need to brush up on my arabic but I know the bottom part say " Martyrs is the way of Victory" but does anyone know what the top say?
oamotme Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) Good morning from Riyadh, Top line - Naval ForcesBottom Line - Martyrdom is the Road to Victory Regards, Owain Edited February 19, 2012 by oamotme
Paul R Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 This is a very interesting piece of insignia. I dont think that the Syrians have a very large Navy. What makes this stand out as Syrian?

Also, the syrians as far as I know are the only middle eastern nation that use that plastic around their patches.
Paul R Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Awesome!! Can you please post your other Syrian insignia as well? Do you have any rank insignia?

LeftTop "Nation Honour Devotion" (I think grammatically the word is devotion although in this context it may be interpreted as loyalty)Bottom "Military Driving (?) School" RightTop " Nation Honour Devotion"Bottom "Engineers or Engineering" Regards, Owain
Paul R Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Are those items commemorative/membership pieces, or are they awards?

Lion101 Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Thank you very much, I do have more comming in a bit. Thank you Owain as well, I wondering if you happen to know what those say as well?
oamotme Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 Greetings from a dusty Riyadh - apologies for the delay in getting back - been in the midst of hosting a St.David's Day dinner with choir of nine flown in herer from North Wales! Anyway with regard to the above six badges - the top half in all instances reads "Nation Honour Loyalty (or Devotion)" and the lower halves read left to right: Communications (Signals) College Training College Maritime (Naval) College Republican Guard Civil Artillery College Technical Affairs I hope this assists. Kind regards, Owain
