SAEDNEWS: In a moving ceremony, senior media executives toured the family residence of late IRGC Commander Hossein Salami to view the dusty uniform, dog tag, and cap he wore at the moment of his martyrdom—objects now transformed into symbols of national sacrifice.
According to Saed News, on Saturday, 28 Tir 1404 (July 19, 2025), a delegation of senior managers from Iran’s national media organizations gathered at the private home of the late Lieutenant General Hossein Salami. There, laid out on polished tables and under soft spotlights, were the very items he wore when he fell: a khaki‑stained field jacket, matching trousers, the iron dog tag that hung at his throat, and the dust‑caked cap that bore the marks of his final mission.
The display, organized by Salami’s family, was intended not as a funeral relic but as a living remembrance—each garment a testament to his decades‑long service defending Iranian sovereignty. Media executives moved reverently among the exhibits, pausing to capture photographs on their phones and to share hushed reflections on the visceral sense of history these everyday objects conveyed.
Salami, who led the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps through periods of regional upheaval, had often spoken of his bond with Iran’s soil; now, that allegiance was literally stitched into the fibers of his uniform. Observers noted how the faded khaki hue and the rubbed‑smooth edges of his cap evoked both the hardships of front‑line command and the enduring link between soldier and homeland.
In remarks to journalists, one visiting editor lauded the gesture as “a powerful reminder that true leadership is born in the dirt of sacrifice.” As images of Salami’s personal effects circulate across news networks, they serve as poignant artifacts—bridging the gap between military legend and human devotion, and inviting the nation to reflect on the price of defense and the legacy of its heroes.
