Back in 2007, several people weighed in on a topic (What's the Symbol), but there was never a final image produced.
I don't want to resurrect who the soldiers are, or whether or not KSA had M151s. I just need a clear, preferably high definition, image of the KSA marking shown on this vehicle:

I am restoring an M151A2 that was produced under the 1977 Army contract, but set aside by State and went to KSA. It's original color was Tan. NO US markings on it. At one time, it did have a KSA marking on the side.
Does anyone have a good clear image of that marking?

Re: Looking for a good image of a KSA marking
If you blow this one up it shows Saudi Army vehicles but a very clear shot of a different emblem. Is the KSA emblem a special unit?

Getting closer.
If you sharpen this one and blow it up you get a real good view of the marking.

Re: Looking for a good image of a KSA marking
And we have a winner! If you save this one, blow it up and sharpen it you get a perfect image. Also I will post a link to the site and you can go through hundreds of pictures, there may even be more. This one was shortly after the vintage aircraft.https://milinme.files.wordpress.com/201 ... 725145.jpg
Here is the link to the place I found them

From Guy's panel sight, someone said the words in the lower banner are Arabic for Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. That would be this.....
