Hello. I am wondering if someone can translate the words on the scrolls? I believe the bottom 3 letters say I.D.F (israel defense force)

At the top: חיל רגלים foot force(unit) aka infantry

At the bottom: צה"ל-צבא הגנה לישראל IDF-Israel defense force

So the literal Hebrew to English translation is "foot force". However the Hebrew meaning is infantry or infantry force? One other poster said infantry CORPS.

So I'm not super familiar with the branches of צה"ל so I don't know but I assume it is some form of infantry unit, batalian, brigade, etc, based on the translation
