Task Force 1st Armored Division teaches ICDC
BAGHDAD, Iraq - Task Force 1st Armored Division soldiers from the 2nd
Armored Cavalry Regiment began the first Iraqi Civil Defense Corps
Primary Leadership Development Course for approximately 100 ICDC
noncommissioned officers at Camp Muleskinner here Saturday.
The PLDC is designed to build a professional noncommissioned officer
corps and follows the "be, know, do" principle. It will reinforce basic
soldiering skills such as land navigation, but it will focus on
developing noncommissioned leaders for the ICDC.
This class is the first of four and is primarily filled with senior
noncommissioned officers at the first sergeant and sergeant major level.
It is scheduled to last two weeks, culminating with a graduation March
11. The course instructors are U.S. Army drill instructors from Fort
Sill, Okla.
