With the aid of a bullhorn, an Iraqi platoon leader of 2nd Battalion, 21st Regiment, 5th Iraqi Army Division, issues firing commands to his Iraqi jinood, Arabic for soldiers, during reflexive fire training at Kirkush Military Training Base, Feb. 6, 2011. Iraqi soldiers learned proper firing techniques from U.S Division-North soldiers assigned to Company A, 1st Battalion, 21st Infantry Regiment, 2nd Advise and Assist Brigade, 25th Infantry Division. After providing initial instruction, Company A soldiers, stepped back and Iraqi platoon leaders took charge of each range. U.S. forces are training Iraqi units at KMTB as part of Tadreeb al Shamil, an Iraqi program to prepare Iraqi jinood to train their own troops, furthering Iraqi army ground units' tactical skills and military capabilities.
