Saddam Hussein as a Passenger on My Blackhawk

This is maybe one of the most anticipated episodes from my experiences as a Soldier. Saddam Hussein was a passenger on my helicopter in 2006. YES! In the flesh, he was climbed in the aircraft on my side and sat about 2 feet from me. He was as defiant as ever. Saddam Hussein chewed on a unlit cigar while pointing at me and saying who knows what! We did not handcuff him or blindfold him as we treated him as a head of state. Some may find that difficult to hear, but we did. We often do try and do the right things in according to international norms. The preparation and execution of this mission was painstakingly difficult. The step by step process included about 40+ steps. The Commanding General was listening to the execution of the mission in case some thing went wrong. We executed it flawlessly, but it was a pain in the ass getting ready for a mission that lasted about 7 minutes. After dropping Saddam Hussein off, we went and picked up Chemical Ali and the other henchmen. Ali was dressed in cargo shorts, a Hawaiian shirt, flip flops like he was going to the beach! Tune in for the rest of the details!
