| Description | Sending the Iraqi army forth to take care of security operations is the key to the safety of the Iraqi people and the groundwork for the establishment of a free government, many senior military officials have said.
Iraqi army soldiers of the 3rd Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 5th Iraqi Army Division, are independently conducting operations in their area of Diyala province. They are performing gathering their own intelligence, patrolling their streets and hunting for insurgents and terrorists.
A brigade-sized operation conducted recently throughout the village of Tahrir yielded a handful of suspected insurgents who were detained for questioning. "This operation is the responsibility of the Iraqi army to run from start to finish," said Army Maj. Jeff Arrington of Multinational Corps Iraq's Military Training and Transition Team.
