The other night one of my sons asked a question I didn't know the answer to. He wanted to know what happened to the Iraqi troops that surrendered after the first war was over.

Did they stay in Iraq and if they did what did Saddam do to them? I can't imagine Saddam letting all of them live. Seems to me he would have to make an example of some of them.

Does your step-dad know?

I believe that thousands of them were resettled here in the States...unfortunately, there were probably some unfriendlies planted among the refugees. One of the largest groups (IIRC over 5000) settled near Oklahoma City...
