SOMALIA (UNOSOM), 1993 - 1994

The Irish Defence Forces contribution to UNOSOM II was a Transport Company.  The Irish initially worn a very smart desert pattern uniform (American pattern) this changed to a basic green during the period.  The reason there is a variation badge for the 1st Tpt Coy is that enough were not ordered for the troops and a second batch was made.
