Iraqi Soldiers send aid to California fire victims
A group of Iraqi Soldiers stepped up to help California residents victimized by recent wildfires raging throughout the state. Iraqi Army Col. Abbas Fadhil, Besmaya Range Complex commander, and his team of “Abbas’ Eagles†raised $500 for wildfire relief. “We want to send a message to the American president and the American people,†said Abbas. “We feel that we are a family—one body.
