Common goal
Iraqi Major-Gen. Tariq Abual Wahab Jasim, far right, and Marine Col. Robert F. Castellvi, second from right, have a common goal: get the Iraqi army ready to stand alone so that Americans can home. Castellvi acts as senior military advisor to Jasim, commanding general of the 1st Iraqi Army Division. They are shown at a feast hosted by a powerful Sunni tribal sheik and work closely together every day.
