Pentagon delays Army brigade deployment to Iraq
The Pentagon indefinitely delays the 3,500 soldiers of the 2nd Brigade, 1st Infantry Division, from leaving Germany for Iraq this month. Officials say the move could reduce U.S. forces in Iraq, but overall impact depends on other 2006 deployments and Iraq’s unity government formation. If conditions shift, the brigade may still be deployed.
