Iraqi Police Armband

This armband was sent to me by a US Army soldier that is a collector and he said that there was a crate full of these things in a wharehouse in Georgia that the military never sent to Iraq. This armband is a dark blue (the flash makes it brighter) and US made. It also has a velcro closure on the back. Enjoy.

PS: Does anyone know what the arabic writing says?

Thank you. I've tried to find pictures of an armband this style being used before and I just can't. I wonder if this type was ever sent to Iraq at all?

I am not sure I know a tailor from Iraq who was making them at his shop:

Here is one from my collection I received it from an Iraqi Police Officer in 2003:

Andrew,
I can't see all the Arabic Writing on the armband but I'm sure it is "Iraqi Policemen" above the IP.
