What happens over the course of the 14-day training period depends on how a unit behaves from day to day.If US troops storm a calm village, kicking down doors and shooting on sight, for instance, they’ll face snipers and IEDs the next time they visit. If they hire an interpreter (using real dinars shipped over from Iraq) and respect local customs, though, they might just learn about an Al-Qaeda cell shipping guns into the area.
