    This is a CUSTOM US MADE Patch that a Marine had made when he was an advisor to the Iraqi Army back in 2007-2008. It is a morale patch for the Iraqi Scout Sniper Platoon that he worked with. The patch reads: 2-1-7 (2nd Battalion, 1st Brigade, 7th Division) and says "Scout Sniper Platoon, Strength and Honor" in Arabic.

    It also includes the Jaguar, which is highly respected in Iraqi Culture, as well as a crossed Kalashnikov/Dragunov.

    The 2nd Battalion, 1st Brigade, 7th Division of the Iraqi Army was created in Baghdad in 2003, served in Ramadi from 2003-2007, and then served in Diwaniyah in 2008, Basra in 2008 and Al Kut in 2008-2009.

    That's a really cool-looking patch. Great addition, Arch!

    Thanks! I was really excited to get these patches (yes...that is plural) in today. From what I've been able to asscertain, the soldier is part of the 2nd Marine Special Operations Battalion.
