Drove my neighbor today to a his follow up eye surgery in Fort Stewart, Ga.
He's a Army Doctor.
We stopped by the Museum there and asked the Sgt. on duty if he could confirm a rumor for us.
Do you remember this?
Well the rumor is/was that Sadam's head was there at Fort Stewart. When we asked the Sgt. he says, it's not a rumor it's in the back lot.
He takes us out the back door and says, go down this path, through the open gate and there are some wooden crates. It's one of the crates.
Well sure enough it was, unceremoniously, in 7 wooden crates. Most of the statue.
The 3rd ID is stationed at Fort Stewart. They were the first ones in Iraq, the most deployed in Iraq and the ones responsible for pulling down the statue.
They also have Saddam's balcony guns. One pictured here.
The also have the golden guns formerly owned by Saddam and his sons.
Very interesting visit. I suggest you stop by and take a look at history if you get a chance.
To gain access to the base, if you don't have an Army Captain with you like I did, you'll need your drivers license, registration and proof of insurance. You have to enter through the main gate in Hinesville, Ga. They will give you a pass after presenting your documents.
