John,

I did talk with one Iranian today and he was having a hard time translating the inscription. The word on top is "Iran". As you know, Farsi is read from the right to the left, and the first word is Capital, or Central. The next to the last word is Colonel. I have another Iranian at work I will try to see tomorrow. he was in meetings all day today. I will keep you posted as soon as I get an answer. The Egyptian can read the letters, but can't understand the words. I will keep plugging away.
