"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.
