Task Force Viking Map
Quiet Professionals,
To preface this I run a traveling display about the GWOT where our goal is to educate the public about life down range. As such, I am always trying to learn more about the GWOT to be knowledgeable when asked questions and to relay pertinent information. A few years back I picked up a map of the Dotaza region of Iraq that has some tactical markings on it.
Beyond the friendly position markings on it, it shows Iraqi (or other) forces around Deralok (درلوك). Deralok is North of the 'Green Line' and about 80km east of Duhok. Portions of both 10th and 3rd group were in Northern Iraq tying up 13 Iraqi divisions from defending Baghdad. This brings about my question.
If you are familiar with what was going on there, would you be willing to share the story? Nothing OPSEC of course, but more of a general filling in the blanks. I'd like to make sure that, that history gets to stay with the map.
With Respect,
Red
