    I don't understand what you mean by NAJA-attached army conscripts.

    These are NAJA conscripts, the ones with woodland type camo serve in ''Yegan-e Emdad', the ones in the other pic serve in Border Guard command.

      Those young men are fulfilling their military service, conscription obligation, that's why I refer to them as "NAJA attached." Their outfitting has generally been more army-like.

      You may be right, "NAJA conscripts" may be a better description.
