AL HILLA, Iraq – Eight hundred Iraqi policemen graduated from basic training today.
These 800 policemen were selected to attend the emergency response unit training and will add to the quality and adaptability of the north Babil police force.
An ERU is a special Iraqi police unit, working directly for the commander of the Babil province police, which is able to respond to any situation at a moment's notice in the northern Babil province area.
The graduates will attend a six-week training course that will cover a variety of skills including weapons training and emergency medical care. The units will be located in Haswah, Bahbahhani, Eskan, Iskandariyah, and Musayyib.
Covering a range of special skills from weapons training, to providing emergency medical care, the ERU will become a much needed and flexible force in North Babil capable of reacting to any situation that may arise.
