Blackanthem Military News BAGHDAD, Iraq - Six members of the Iraqi Ministry of Interior's Warrant Service Team graduated from the Psychology and Physiology of Deadly Conflict in Police Actions class here Dec. 3.
The class introduced the work of David Grossman from his book, "On Combat, the Psychology and Physiology of Deadly Conflict in War and in Peace." The students learned about a universal human phobia -- human aggression. The class taught how the body reacts to conflict through the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Students learned how leaders should apply techniques to their training that will help to manage stress in high-risk situations.
The course included training on recognizing what condition of stress police officers may face during critical missions and how to mitigate the high stress they may feel when involved in a dangerous and unpredictable situation. The focus on tactical breathing was emphasized as an important part of this training. With tactical breathing techniques, police officers can lower their anxiety and stress during live combat operations.
"I challenge each of you trainers to set your standards high in your organization," said U.S. Marine Col. Darrell Halse, ITAM-MOI Rule of Law director, during the graduation ceremony. "You are ready to take missions on your own and I am confident you will build on these basics to reach the highest levels."
Team leader for the Warrant Services Team, Iraqi Police Capt. Mustafa stressed the importance of the training of his team members. "After attending training like this, our standards have been raised," said Mustafa.
As the U.S. mission in Iraq winds down, the Iraqi police officers are taking on the responsibility for professionalizing their forces.
