An Iraqi policeman stands security in the marketplace in downtown Ramadi June 9. The surge of 30,000 U.S. troops to Iraq allowed Marines with 1st Battalion, 9th Marine Regiment to focus a great deal on training the Iraqi Security Forces. Now more than a month into their own deployment, Weapons Company, 2nd Battalion, 9th Marine Regiment, Regimental Combat Team 1, has been successful at picking up where their predecessors with 1st Battalion, 9th Marine Regiment, left off.
