Well done to him. That's a great experience/achievement he can take back to his Iraqi Soldiers.

"Once an officer gets training in the United States, there's a loyalty toward this country," he said. "We want to build and strengthen our military alliances. What happens with the politicians is a separate matter."

That's a valuable benefit of training international candidates. We had OCdts from several different countries training with us at RMAS who have since been commissioned into their native country's forces and many friendships were forged during their time with us.
