I didn't train Iraqi Army troops, but I did train Iraqi Police and in many ways they were worthless. Institutionally they were entirely corrupt and individually they were unmotivated and unknowledgeable about even the most basic police and security procedures. If the Iraqi Army of today is anything like that, they are worthless. I did work with some Iraqi Army in 2007 and for the most part they were decent enough guys, but lousy soldiers. Same goes for the police actually.
