I find it difficult to imagine that the US regulations would be much different?

According to David, who is a military person. He said that American military allow trophy taking to items of no historic value or any value to the Iraqi/afghan people. So if he is right, then this is even illegal to the american army.
Tommorow am visiting Kuwait museum and try to acquire the number of the Iraqi museum and see how can they assist.
Any Americans here are willing to help by giving details of law regarding war trophies??
