School of Infantry NCO II achieves Initial Operating Capability
يقوم مدربون عراقيون من مدرسة المشاة الثانية لضباط الصف بتدريب جنود الجيش العراقي على الطرقة الصحيحة لتفكيك وتجميع مدفع رشاش نوع م240ب ومدفع رشاش خفيف نوع م249 في معسكر التاجي، العراق، في 19 آذار 2019. يخضع الجنود لإشراف مدربي الجيش الأسترالي من فريق المهام تاجي 8 ، وهو فريق مهام مشترك أسترالي ونيوزيلندي يعمل على تدريب قوات الأمن العراقية من أجل تحقيق الإستقرار في المناطق التي تم تطهيرها من داعش. يقدم التحالف المشورة والدعم لقوات الأمن العراقية في سبع مجالات أمنية رئيسية: السياسة الأمنية والعمليات الأمنية والتدريب والإدامة والإستخبارات ومكافحة الإرهاب والملاحة الجوية. لقد حقّقت مدرسة المشاة الثانية لضباط الصف التابعة للجيش العراقي مؤخراً القدرة التشغيلية الأولية، ممّا يعني أنّ المدرسة يمكنها أداء 75 بالمائة من مهامها دون الحاجة الى مساعدة التحالف Iraqi instructors from the 2nd Non-Commission Officer School of Infantry train Iraqi army soldiers on the proper way to strip and assemble the M240B machine gun and the M249 light machine gun at Camp Taji, Iraq, Mar. 19, 2019. The soldiers are under the supervision of Australian army trainers from Task Group Taji 8, which is a combined Australian-New Zealand Task Group that provides the Iraqi Security Forces with training to enable the stabilization of areas cleared of Daesh. The Coalition advises and assists the Iraqi Security forces in seven key security functions: security policy, security operations, training, sustainment, intelligence, counterterrorism and aviation. The Iraqi Army School of Infantry NCO 2 recently achieved initial operating capability, meaning that the school can perform 75 percent of its operations without Coalition assistance.
