Hi - does anyone out there have a picture of the Basra War Memorial (not sure what shape its in at the moment) but ive searched lots of sites and cant find any pictures. I do know it was moved by Sadam Hussain in 1997.

Hope someone can help.

Thanks

It was shown quite a bit on the news just after the last fighting officially stopped. Sorry but I dont know which channel.

A pal posted a photo for me on the Forum. I think it was back in Jan or Feb this year. A search back for that period on Photo and Document Requests may prove fruitful. Let me know if you can't find it and I'll scan it in at home for you

Cheers
