Soldiers from Iraq's 9th Battalion, Iraqi special operations forces fast-rope onto the roof of a building, April 22. The soldiers trained into the night improving their ability to quickly exit helicopters both by rope, and on foot. Knowing that the ability to rapidly get out of the helicopter may be the difference between the capture of a suspected terrorist or his escape, the soldiers sprinted from station to station while training to get in as many runs as they could.
