U.S.: Iraqi Forces Nearly Ready

Lt. General James P. Dubik, pauses in this Wednesday, Nov. 3, 2004 file photo, during a promotion ceremony at Fort Lewis, Wash. The Army three-star general who for a year led efforts to train Iraq's army and police units says progress is mixed and U.S. help is needed for the foreseeable future. Dubik was expected to tell the House Armed Services Committee on Wednesday July 9, 2008 that Iraq's security forces have grown by more than a quarter _ from 444,000 to 566,000 _ since he assumed command of the Multi-National Security Transition Command in June 2007. And, he says, the forces are improving their ability to execute operations on their own. Army Lt. Gen. Frank Helmick assumed control of the U.S. training command last week. Dubik is retiring after 37 years of service.
