Description
English: One of Fawzi al-Qawuqji's armored vehicles, captured by Israel in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War

English-language caption:
WITH THE COMPLIMENTS OF KAUKJI
One of Kaukji's armoured cars, with the Army of Liberation emblem — a dagger thrust into a David's Shield. It was captured after his defeat in the Galilee and his flight from the Palestine campaign.

Look here for a vehicle identical to this one, currently in Jordan.
Note: It has been suggested by Graphics Lab editors that the dagger and star emblem in this photo may have been added at some point after the photo was taken. This might be a doctored image.
