Georgia to send 550 more troops to Iraq
2005-01-30
In February, Georgia will send 550 Georgian servicemen to Iraq who will take part in peace-keeping operations there. The additional contingent will join 300 servicemen from Georgia who have been deployed in Iraq since last November, a representative of the Georgian Defense Ministry told Tass.

The additional contingent will be airlifted to Iraq by planes of the US Air Force.

#2  ZF, IIRC, we have had S.O. troops in Georgia for a couple of years training their troops to erradicate Chechens with Al Queda ties from the Pankisi Gorge. So no bets here.

#1  What are the odds that these guys are training with GI's? I would say very high...
