Sort of I guess. In a basement dug into the sand is my best understanding of the location, maybe others who have been up longer than me can provide more details.

The Iraqi GC said that "Saddam said he was a just and fair ruler." We told him he wasn't.

"In a basement dug into the sand . . . ."
General Sanchez called it a "spider hole." A very small dugout with a primitive ventilation system. As I recall from the press conference it was in a field close to a small farm house in a village near Tikrit. I'll guess that it was where Saddam spent his nights, and maybe used the farmhouse for other times.
