Camp Dublin

Camp Dublin was part of the Victory Base Complex, a huge US cluster of military installations outside Baghdad (Iraq). It was the headquarters of the Iraqi Federal Police - Special Training Academy, including a secluded part in which an Italian Carabinieri Contingent was hosted. The scope of the latter was to provide a Gendarmery training to the Iraqi Federal Police (IFP),^[1] as part of the NATO Training Mission - Iraq and according to the prerogatives of this Italian Armed Force which performs police functions in its homeland. Italy withdrew its Carabinieri, terminating the training after a long and proficient cooperation with the Iraqi, in 2011.^[2]
