All due respect to your recruiter but...I think not. I'm sure a special ops team will be sent for Saddam but our large force will be used. It cost a huge amount of money to send and sustain forces into the field. Why would we load to Marine assault ships with all the weapons and ammo they would need if they are just for show? Plus the fact that we cant just go in take out Saddam and leave. We have to put in a force to keep control of the country so that it does not turn into total chaos. So I think your recruiters theory is plausible, will it be done that way? no.
