In this 2008 photo, a Convoy Security Element with Company A, 10th Brigade Support Battalion, 1st Brigade, 10th Mountain Division, aligns a re-supply convoy headed out of Forward Operating Base, Warrior, Kirkuk, Iraq. American military contractors operating in Iraq have accused Baghdad of using strong-arm tactics to force them to pay exorbitant taxes, a practice they’ve warned is undermining the mission to defeat the Islamic State extremists. To compel payment of the taxes, which can run into the millions of dollars, they say Iraqi authorities have held up the delivery of critical supplies, including food, fuel and water, bound for U.S.-led coalition forces combating the insurgents.(U.S. Army photo by Spc.
