Movie star Bruce Willis is planning to honor the $1 million offer he made to the soldier who found Saddam Hussein.

The movie star visited troops in Iraq last month and promised to make the soldier who uncovered the country's former leader an overnight millionaire.

Willis is now trying to discover who he owes, and says, "It's a small price to pay. They're my heroes."

Buy "The Whole Nine Yards". He stars in it and is the producer. A double-pay check.

Was that a single soldier or perhaps 2 or 3 or maybe more? I read 600 were involved in surrounding the farm where he was found. That would be around $1500 for each of them if he decided to split the million that way.

Class act and All American. Not some self serving Barbra Strisand BS. He truely wants the soldier to be rewarded. Wish I had the money to do that. I will spend mine on Bruce Willis DVDs instead. I will never forget this......

Thought Bruce had been critical of the Iraq business. No?

BUMP for Integrity!

Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and yours.

[Wright is right!]

The winner should be the GI who said, "President Bush sends his regards!"

What a stud.

[Hildy]

No.

[waRNmother.armyboots]

No Bruce was never critical of the war. In fact, he tried to have a special waiver from President Bush to enlist (He is too old.) He performed in numerous events for the troops in the war zones and here at home. This is Bruce "Willis" not Bruce Springsteen.

Even thought I think Bush is the MAN...I'll concede this one to you.

[veronica]

Bruce Willis is one cool dude. :)

[Paradox]

Is this legal? Isn't there some kind of law or rules against this? (BTW, kudos to Bruce!)

[GalaxieFiveHundred]

Senator Willis, maybe?

[theDentist]

Well, Bush is THE MAN. Willis is daMan.

Hi Lowbie! Great post.
We love Bruce!!!

[afraidfortherepublic]

Wow! A movie star I can admire. It's too bad that some of his co-stars are such idiots -- Cybil Shephard and Demi Moore, to be precise.

Maybe the million goes to the guy who said "whats in that hole" or "whats under the carpet" or "why is there a carpet on the ground in this field?" or "Hey guys, Lookie here".

"Buy "The Whole Nine Yards". He stars in it and is the producer. A double-pay check."

Plus it's a great movie!
