    A group of soldiers in military uniforms and body armor are standing in an outdoor compound, each holding rifles pointed downward. The soldiers are wearing mixed camouflage patterns and helmets, with visible flag patches on their uniforms suggesting Iraqi military affiliation. The setting appears to be a military base or training facility in an arid environment.

    Soldiers from the Iraqi army’s 73rd Infantry Brigade receive M16A2 rifles and infantry sets as part of the IA combat brigade sets fielding in support of Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve at Camp Taji, Iraq, June 17, 2015. Under the direction of the 3rd Sustainment Brigade Forward Support Element, Fort Stewart, Ga., and the 1st Sustainment Command (Theater) from Fort Bragg, N.C., Iraqi soldiers receive equipment needed in the fight against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. “When you give soldiers new equipment their motivation to fight is going to go up,” said Staff Col Shukr Rthan, commander of the 73rd Infantry Brigade.
