Company 1st Armored Division and of Memphis, Tennessee, participates in a joint patrol with members of the Iraqi Police (I.P.) February 24, 2008 in Diyala Province, Baquba, Iraq. Baquba was until recently the geographical headquarters of al-Qaeda in Iraq, where they terrorized citizens and used the strategically located city as a base for operations. With the surge in U.S. troops coupled with the nascent anti al-Qaeda Sunni groups, security in Baquba has improved significantly.
