| #1 The unit leaving in December, the 3rd Brigade of the 1st Cavalry, has been in Iraq since October 2006. When it leaves, the 4th Stryker Brigade of the 2nd Infantry Division, now in Salahuddin province, will add Diyala to its area of responsibility. Will the incoming 4th Stryker Brigade find they need to start over building trust with the local tribes that the 3 Brigade, 1st Cavalry had established? |
