I read that story online. It was retained from a soldier that brought it back as a trophy or spoil of war, but the branch felt it belonged back to Iraq. It was actuallly several pieces. I will find the story and link it. Seems Sadam had a company that made arms for himself, family and friends. This one had been Sadam's
I think that it's absurd that troops cannot bring back war trophies anymore.
I served from 99-07, and i think it happened sometime while i was in. I still have
2 Japanese swords my grandfather took off soldiers he killed in Guadalcanal.
The AK is definitely one of Saddam's. A beautiful piece even though it commemorates a monster.

That blows. Sucks he couldn't keep it.
