A soldier runs alongside a T-72 tank as troops from 1st Battalion, 3rd Brigade, 9th Iraq Army Division (Mechanized) practice setting up emergency traffic control points during a March 20 training exercise on Camp Taji, Iraq. Company C, 52nd Infantry Regiment 1st Sgt. David Colburn, of Pulaski, Wis., said soldiers like the dismount pictured above will be quickly rewarded through the IA's unique promotion system, which eschews boards and time-in-service requirements for simple recognition of efficient soldiers who take the initiative and demonstrate hustle.
