HOTEL WORKERS BANKING ON WESTERN TOURISTS

Article in Stars & Stripes, 07.05.09. "HILLAH, Iraq — More than 100 Iraqi tourism workers will go back to work when U.S. forces leave their base in the city of Hillah later this year. The 66-room hotel has been a U.S. center since 2003. These days it’s known as the Regional U.S. Embassy Office in Al-Hillah and serves as headquarters for the Babil PRT and the 172nd Infantry Brigade’s Task Force 2nd Battalion, 28th Infantry Regiment."

The REO Hillah is where I'll be stationed until December.
