Lt. Gen. William ``Fuzzy'' Webster, deputy commander of all allied ground forces in Iraq, said in a separate interview Monday that within two weeks an additional 1,000 military police would be operating in Baghdad.

Soldiers of the 1st Armored Division are now gathering in Kuwait, preparing to haul their tanks and other equipment north.
