Iraqi police recruits and Kirkuk police academy staff demonstrate riot control procedures during a graduation ceremony held, May 15, in the Kirkuk province of Iraq. This marks a milestone in this northeastern region as the 399 IP recruits were former Sons of Iraq members from the Hawijah district of the Kirkuk province. They completed the eight week IP training course and will return to Hawijah as Iraqi policemen filling IP vacancies within the Hawijah District, located approximately 60 miles southwest of the city of Kirkuk.
