Iraq
note: in the summer of 2003 the Coalition Provisional Authority
(CPA) began recruiting and training a New Iraqi Army (NIA) that
would have a purely defensive mission and capability; in March 2004,
the Iraqi Interim Government established a Ministry of Defense to
create an Iraqi Armed Force; at that time the NIA was renamed the
Iraqi Armed Force - Army (IAF-A); plans also were put into effect to
reconstitute an Iraqi Army Air Corps (IAAC) and Coastal Defense
Force (navy), but there are no plans to reconstitute an Iraqi Air
Force; the Army's primary new focus will be domestic
counterinsurgency, which is a change of direction from the CPA's
intent to create an army not involved in domestic politics; in
mid-2004 the Iraqi Civil Defense Corps (ICDC) was designated the
Iraqi National Guard (ING) and subordinated to the Defense Ministry
and the Iraqi Armed Forces Pre-war Iraqi military equipment was

to -2 degrees Celsius; cyclonic storms travel eastward around the

winds found anywhere on Earth; in winter the ocean freezes outward

south latitude in the Atlantic sector, lowering surface temperatures
well below 0 degrees Celsius; at some coastal points intense
persistent drainage winds from the interior keep the shoreline
ice-free throughout the winter
