  • I was stationed just a few miles south of the Kuwait border at the inception of ODS. Just sitting in the desert for months sucked.

  • @johnl60415 i am so sorry for you.....lost your brains

  • Two of my uncles served in the Gulf. One in the 82nd Airborne,the other in the 101st.

  • When I was in Ft. Sill getting ready to ETS they told me that I wouldn't be going anywhere and to prepare to get ready to go to war. All of my friends were in shock and everyone was nervous because we didn't know if we were coming back home. I never saw this program until now 20yrs later because I tried to forget about the stuff I had seen or had been involved with. I am now sick from all the stuff exposed to and the many vaccines I was given. War only harms the living who have to suffer

  • @johnl60415

    Buddy, all I can say is that is one kick ass ride!

  • @dustyaries why were u shocked? this wasn't a surprise attack this war was building for months before it finally boiled over.

  • This is the first time I'm experiencing this particular day from the other side of Desert Storm. 19 years ago, on Jan 17, I was on a Military Airlift Command aircraft with about 200+ personnel on our way to Rheim Main Germany. I graduated from Fort Knox a couple of days before.

    The Captain of the aircraft came in to the PA and announced that Coalition forces has begun an campaign called Desert Storm. No one clapped or cheered. We'd all was shocked. The only sound was the drone of the jet engine

  • I was in Wrestling practice at my high school when the janitor came in and turned on the TV

    lol Those reporters have some serious friggen balls man.
