BACKGROUND This case highlights the myriad challenges that arise when private companies contract with the government to support military personnel deployed in a combat zone. The Plaintiff, Tamimi Global Company ('Tamimi"), is a Saudi Arabian limited partnership with its principal place of business in Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia. The Defendant, DynCorp International ("DynCorp"), is a private military contractor with its principal place of business in Falls Church, Virginia. In 2009 the United States Air Force hired DynCorp as the general contractor to support the 332nd Expeditionary Force Squadron at Joint Base Balad in Iraq.
