"Third Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, Regimental Combat Team 7, is responsible for training and mentoring the Iraqi security forces in Rawah."(Multinational Corps Iraq news release.) The Rawah operation illustrates how the Iraqi police are fast-becoming a viable law enforcement organization, said U.S. Marine Maj. Lowell F. Rector, officer in charge of the police transition teams in western Anbar province.
"The Iraqis are gathering their own intelligence, following up on leads, executing what they've been taught by coalition forces and are catching the bad guys," said Rector, a 42-year-old reservist who's a police officer in Columbus, Ohio."
