    Two military officers, one from the Iraqi Army and one from the U.S. Army, are posing together while jointly holding a glass/crystal commemorative award or plaque. The setting appears to be an official military office, with Arabic text on a framed plaque visible on the wall behind them along with an Iraqi flag. This appears to be a formal ceremony or diplomatic exchange between coalition forces.

    Staff Brig. Gen. Adel, the commander of the First Quick Reaction Force Brigade, Iraqi army, headquartered at Camp Ali, gives U.S. Army Col. Ronald Kapral, the commander of Camp Ramadi and the 81st Brigade Combat Team, Washington Army National Guard, a gift, symbolizing the partnership between the Iraq and Coalition Forces after signing a memorandum of agreement turning Camp Ramadi over to the Iraqi government Jan. 20 at Camp Ali, Iraq. The signing over of Camp Ramadi is a step toward coalition forces pulling out and handing complete responsibility and control back over to the Iraqis.
