MG Silverman in Iraq
Like the time the Army’s head of prisons asked if he could find someone to do dental work on Saddam Hussein, and Silverman said: “I’ll do it.”
“I set up some of the rules,” said Silverman, who is now retired and lives in Palm Beach. “I said you’re going to have to bring him to my clinic, I’m not bringing field equipment into a room. We did it at night so there was good security.”
