Iraqi Popular Army

The Iraqi Popular Army, also known as the People's Army or People's Militia) was a paramilitary organization established on February 8 (other sources mention April 4), 1970 by the Revolutionary Command Council's Resolution No. 355 and it was composed of civilian volunteers to protect the Ba'ath regime against internal opposition and serve as a counterbalance against any coup attempt by the regular
Iraqi Army.
Officially, it was the Iraqi Baath Party Militia and included a special youth section called Ashbal Saddam (Saddam's cubs) established in 1998. Saddam's Cubs prepared young volunteers for Saddam's Fedayeen. The Popular Army was officially disbanded by the Revolutionary Command Council) (1968-2003)s Resolution No. 306 of August 1, 1990.

For the moment I've only been able to locate a logo but I'm certain that there was a flag too.
