AL TAQADDUM, Iraq (August 24, 2007) ?   A Level II Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle sits outside of an engineer compound here. Taqaddum is one of the final destinations of the MRAPs from the assembly line to forward deployed servicemembers.  The arrival of the vehicles is part of a push by Defense Secretary Robert Gates to have them delivered to servicemembers as quickly as possible because of the superior amount of protection provided by its V-shaped hull and integrated armor.
