THE 143rd IN IRAQ is the historical account of a Connecticut National Guard Military Police Company's attempt to recruit, train and prepare an Iraqi Police Force in 2003-2004. Every American voting in the upcoming elections needs to know what candidates mean when they say the United States need to continue training Iraq Police and Military with "boots on the ground" before entering the voting booth. From training for desert conditions in upstate New York in the dead of winter without winter gear, to driving through the night into the morning, trying find Baghdad using pieces of a map puzzle, to entering war zones without the required soldiers, weapons or ammo, Marc Youngquist shares how the 143rd Military Police Company did what they could to fulfill their mission, in spite of it all.
