More than 500 citizens of Tarmiyah, Iraq, which is located approximately 25 miles north of Baghdad, stand in line for more than five hours, Sept. 12, to volunteer for security forces in effort to drive al-Qaida from the city. The effort has been dubbed an awakening. Iraqi army soldiers with help from 4th Battalion, 9th Infantry Regiment, 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division from Fort Lewis, Wash., cleared the city of al-Qaida days prior, allowing the citizens to safely volunteer to stand up for their city.
