Brunswick, Georgia Marine Trains Iraqi Commandos

An IED explosion, gunfire and hand-to-hand combat marked the graduation of Iraqi commandos aboard Al Asad Air Base in Iraq's Al Anbar Province. But will they be ready? By June 30, 2009, U.S. and Coalition forces have agreed to be out of Iraqs major cities. Before they can leave, however, Iraqi Security Forces must be able to stand on their own. From Iraq, Randy Garsee explains how Marine Captain Rusty Tuten, a native of Brunswick, Georgia, plays a major role in training Iraqi commandos.
