Camp Rustamiyah (formerly Camp Muleskinner or Camp Cuervo) was a forward operating base for the U.S. Army in Iraq. It was the site of the oldest military academy in Iraq. ==History== British forces founded the Iraqi Military Academy at Rustamiyah in 1924 to train officers for the newly established Royal Iraqi Army, and based it on the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst, England.〔Al-Marashi, I., and S. Salama. Iraq’s Armed Forces: An Analytical History. 2008. Routledge.〕 The first class of Iraqi officers graduated in 1927. Camp Rustamiyah was captured by the United States during the Iraq War. The academy was re-opened under NATO direction in 2005/6. In 2009, the United States transferred control of Camp Rustamiyah back to the Iraqi security forces. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Camp Rustamiyah」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
