Hello, I have some pics of a M1117 in a magazine. The caption only talks about february 2007 in Irak.

With the front markings is it possible to identify the unit who used it ?

This magazine is out of buisness because of the death of Yves Debay killed in Syria in 2013

There is also a triangle in black color near the numero 34.

My guess is it is from B Company, 1-34 Armor Battalion, vehicle B-705. Don't know if that helps, but that is what I decipher.
