A former Sons of Iraq member from the Hawijah district of the Kirkuk province hustles into his 'stack' position during a demonstration held during the May 15, graduation ceremony of 399 Iraqi policemen. Those that graduated the eight week training course at the Kirkuk police academy became the first class of SOI's to make the transition into the Iraqi security forces in this northeastern province. All will return to Hawijah as IPs filling IP vacancies there. (U.S. Army photo/Staff Sgt. Margaret C. Nelson)
