Description
English: Gen. David Petraeus, the commanding general of Multi-National Force - Iraq, watches as Iraq scores a goal during a televised soccer match in a shop in downtown Hawijah, Iraq, June 14. This was Petraeus' first visit to this northeastern region of the country which has seen a 90 percent drop in violent activity against Iraqi security forces, the coalition force, and civilians in recent months. "It's only fitting during the U.S. Army's 233rd, that I share this day with the men and women of the 10th Mountain," Petraeus said. He told the Soldiers of 1st Battalion, 87th Infantry Regiment, 1BCT, 10th Mtn. Div., at Forward Operating Base McHenry in Hawijah, that they have proven to the skeptics, that a year ago thought a walk through Hawijah would not be possible, that they are wrong." Petraeus congratulated the TF Summit Soldiers on their successful counterinsurgency operations since their arrival to the district in September. "You are setting the standard for the rest of the country. What you are accomplishing here will be remembered in the historic rebuilding of Iraq."
