Rebea
Nothing says 'Welcome' more than the Rebea point of entry along the Syrian / Iraqi border.

Bryan Watters
General Bryan Watters, deputy commanding general of CPATT and the brain trust behind the police partnership program to rebuild the MOI, is moving onto greener pastures. He will be missed but the effect of his efforts and the programs he initiated will carry on for quite sometime - regardless of the tumultuous change currently going on.
