This airmail stamp features a dynamic design of a member of the Sudan Camel Corps riding a camel at speed. The Camel Corps was a key unit of the Sudan Defence Force, known for its mobility in the vast desert terrain. The stamp's design captures the essence of this unique military unit.

Issued in 1950, this stamp reflects the final years of the Anglo-Egyptian condominium rule in Sudan, which ended with Sudanese independence in 1956. The Sudan Defence Force was the local military force established under British administration.
