Iraqi police recruits conduct a pass-in-review during a graduation ceremony, Dec. 7, at the Mosul Police Service Academy. 926 police recruits graduated, Dec. 7, from the Mosul Police Service Academy. During the four-week course, the recruits were trained in weapons marksmanship, basic police skills and hand-to-hand tactics. The Mosul Police Service Academy first opened in 2003 and closed for a short time in 2005 after heavy insurgent activity damaged the facility. It reopened in 2005 with Coalition Force assistance. Since 2003, the academy has graduated a total of 9,706 recruits. Upon graduation, the majority of the recruits will work for local police forces in Mosul and the surrounding Ninewah Province.

Jerry Cannon, director general, Civilian Police Assistance Training Team, Multi-National Security Transition Command-Iraq and Brig. Gen Robert Brown, deputy commanding general (Support), Multi-National Division-North.
