Flashlarue Posted December 17, 2013 Share #2 Posted December 17, 2013 South of Basrah in the days after the cease fire we found hundreds of these thrown out along the roads. Most of the ones I picked up at the time were Republican Guard officers and NCOs. I guess they didn't want to be caught with anything connecting them to leadership in the Republican Guard.

ScottG Posted December 17, 2013 Share #3 Posted December 17, 2013 Those are passports not identification cards for military. Military I.D. cards are singular and the pictures are of the soldiers in uniform. Very nice bring backs and the picture is great! Scott Link to post Share on other sites

willysmb44 Posted December 17, 2013 Share #6 Posted December 17, 2013 Stuff like this often gets tossed after a few years, then the regret for tossing it sets in many years after that. Great that these got kept! Lee Bishop Formerly known as "Ratchet 5" with the 2nd Infantry Division (yes, in REAL life) US WW2 War Correspondent collector Link to post Share on other sites
