What is Iraqi Army Day?
Iraqi Army Day on January 6 marks the founding of the Iraqi army in 1921, when its first unit, the Musa al-Kadhim Battalion, was formed in Baghdad under the British Mandate. The army has played a central role in the country's turbulent modern history, through coups, wars and the fight against the Islamic State group. The day is a public holiday, marked with military parades, ceremonies honouring those who died in service and flags across the country.
