00:05.840 --> 00:09.030
calls do that . After a year of hard

00:09.030 --> 00:11.060
work in Iraq . Soldiers from United

00:11.060 --> 00:13.270
States Division Center celebrate as

00:13.270 --> 00:15.610
their tour comes to an end . There are

00:15.610 --> 00:17.499
a variety of events for the day's

00:17.499 --> 00:19.721
festivities to mark the accomplishments

00:19.721 --> 00:21.943
of the soldiers who are about to return

00:21.943 --> 00:24.110
home this morning . We have volleyball

00:24.110 --> 00:26.110
and softball that's going outside .

00:26.110 --> 00:28.166

00:28.166 --> 00:30.388
have a celebration . We're gonna have a

00:30.388 --> 00:32.332
band plan and also a comedy show .

00:32.332 --> 00:34.443
Every deployment has milestones , but

00:34.443 --> 00:36.388
this one seemed to be particularly

00:36.388 --> 00:38.332
historical . These service members

00:38.332 --> 00:40.554
trained the Iraqi Army , saw the end of

00:40.554 --> 00:42.666
combat operations in Iraq and now are

coming together to celebrate their

00:44.610 --> 00:46.332
accomplishments in the tourist

00:46.332 --> 00:48.666
celebration brings a lot of camaraderie ,

00:48.666 --> 00:50.554
A lot of teamwork bringing people

00:50.554 --> 00:52.888
together . I think uh , team events are ,

00:52.888 --> 00:55.240
are one thing that brings soldiers

00:55.240 --> 00:57.296
together . Finally finished with all

00:57.296 --> 00:59.351
their hard work and sacrifice . They

00:59.351 --> 01:01.462
have accomplished their mission . Now

01:01.462 --> 01:03.629
the only thing left for these soldiers

01:03.629 --> 01:05.740
is to train their replacements and go

01:05.740 --> 01:07.962
home just in time for the holidays from

01:07.962 --> 01:10.290
