After spending nine months on the run, former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein
was captured on December 13, 2003. Saddam’s downfall began on March 20,
2003, when the United States led an invasion force into Iraq to topple his government, which had controlled the country for more than 20 years.

On this day in 1887, rescuers freed Jessica McClure from the abandoned well
that she had fallen into in Midland, TX. She was trapped for 58 hours.

Jessica McClure Morales became 33 years young in March.

Following McClure’s rescue on October 16, 1987, surgeons had to
amputate a toe due to gangrene from loss of circulation while she
was in the well. She also has a scar on her forehead where her
head rubbed against the well casing. She had 15 surgeries over
the years and has no first-hand memory of the event.
