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".

I believe that since the soldier was just part of the team that found Saddam, it wouldn't justify giving him the $mill.

BUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That soldier had a hand grenade in his hand, ready to throw in, likely very concerned this could be a trap or full of bombs or terrorists waiting to return fire.

Instead of panicking, he hesitated after giving orders for the occupant(s) to come out with hands up, and Saddam came out.

For that, he deserves the $million bucks.

If he had thrown the grenade, what we would have lost is immeasurable in terms of money.

I say it should go to the guy who had the hand grenade in his hand and was seconds from whipping it down the hole.
