This exercise allowed trainers to see how the soldiers plan their squad movement capabilities. Through advise and assist and build partner capacity missions, the Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve’s multinational coalition has trained more than 18,000 Iraqi security force personnel to defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). A coalition of regional and international nations have joined together to enable Iraqi forces to counter ISIL, re-establish Iraq’s borders and retake lost terrain thereby restoring regional stability and security.
