#1 A tipping point, not for their role as a battlefield in the War on Terror but as a society, when they take responsiblity for protecting the safety of their own community, with all that entails. Congratulations, Tajis!

#3 Having fought with and advsing the Iraqi Army around Taji for 9 months last year, I can tell you this is a significant story...especially in this village's area. It would appear 1-1 has it going in the right direction.
