Rebuilding tough as Iraq violence recedes



BAGHDAD (AP) — Violence in Iraq is at its lowest level in four years, but ask Capt. Mike Forbes, and he will tell you his burrito as a troop commander in Baghdad has gotten harder, not easier.
He spends less time worrying about roadside bombs and battling armed extremists than on his previous two tours to Iraq, and he and his soldiers are happy about that.
