NEW IRAQI NOTES DELIVERED
The Washington Post had an article about the delivery of the
new Iraqi currency."U.S. armored trucks fanned out yesterday across Baghdad
on final deliveries of the new currency, which does not bear
the face of ousted President Saddam Hussein and is due to
be put into circulation tomorrow.Convoys drove through the crowded streets of the capital,
escorted by Humvees from the 1st Armored Division and
helicopters hovering overhead.""Large planes have been flying into Baghdad from London
several times a week for the last two weeks to transport the
new currency. Smaller planes have been delivering new bank
notes to Mosul in the north and Basra in the south."For the full story, see:
