Finally! Someone Learns Arabic.

A military blogger has this interesting post.

FALLUJAH, Iraq-An interesting experiment is going on in the northeast corner of this city. Members of the Iraqi Army and the U.S. Marine Corps are sharing living quarters on a small base. The intent of the experiment is to help the Iraqi soldiers learn more. But it has had an unanticipated side effect: Some marines are picking up new skills. Pfc. Mark Britton has learned Arabic.

I recommend you read the whole post. It's not that long.
