    Desert Storm was a joke compared to Vietnam.. we took them out in less than a week. 
Nowadays, it seems that the kids (and Generals too) in the military have a contest WHO can give American secrets the fastest. And, who can fly the white flag the best.

    Well, it is video from 1990 (very bad quality).. Also, am irritated it put STORM before SHIELD...
But, what would you expect from the LSM.. even back then.
I DO remember, for the first time since ‘Nam, being welcomed back when we were incoming from the airport.

    Okay. I was watching it with no sound, and it didn’t make any sense at all.

    The “Storm” was not war-related
It was killed by the Hurricane Andrew.

    I actually had a Honda Hurricane motorcycle that the hurricane took :P
