Description
This was a high profile graduation of an Iraqi Army brigade. Even Iraq's prime minister showed up to this one. Fighting with other photographers for a shot and avoiding the PM's security detachment wasn't an easy task, but I managed to find a good angle here and catch this guy walking across the field with his sword in tow.Related content

Amazing shot and focusing.
I'm suprised the Iraqi's are all in 1 uniform, that's a first.

Thanks! I'm surprised how quickly they're replacing them around the country already. Pretty soon they'll add a few more things -- Probably something yellow next ..

The Flag no longer has the three stars of the baath party, right?

Yep - they're gone now. Now we just have to wait for them to make the flags and replace them all. I'd expect to see the new flags about 2030.
