Operation Desert Shield started on 2 August 1990 - that mission was to secure the Saudi frontier and prepare to remove Saddam from Kuwait.
Operation Desert Storm was the offensive operation launched on 17 January 1991.

The USA was deeply involved in the oil business at the time. Oh and in the freedom business too.

We are still paying for that war. Did such a shitty job, we had to go back 10 years later, and still fricked it up. Not one single thing was accomplished, except empowering the IS.

It was our first real introduction into modern "smart" technology and we were blow away. Watching scuds incoming and interceptors going up was thrilling TV
