Thanks to God Thanks to every one help to make my country Kuwait free Im not forget this help ever I live

[@Billzloveschelsea]

It was kuwaits fault for stealing oil from Iraq. Sadam defended Iraq by defending his land from theft. The Americans used him and pushed him to attack Kuwait which later led to Iraq being invaded and blamed for other things.

Warriors without armour, troops without armour... Shocking

[@johndowe7003]

its not like wars havent been fought without personal body armor , pre ww1-veitnam (flak jackets dont count as full body armor ) and beyond

[@simonyip5978]

It's strange to think that the troops who were in the First Gulf War back in 1991, were probably in their late teens and their twenties and maybe in their 30's. So the Gulf War veterans are mostly in their 50's and some in their 60's.

31 years...never seen this. The road of death stank of the obvious. Years later I returned to an empty desert on a different mission, but when I realised where I was, it didn't take much local sand kicking to unearth bits of helmets and vehicles. It somehow put my feelings to bed.

[@petermallia558]

And this is how it was done, "We came to do a job and now we're going home" Job done. Typical British modesty, if there was ever an understatement, that was it, and that's one of the reason why I love my country and culture so much, because 'We,(England/Britain), created the modern world then we went home', and that statement is true.

the 66 mm LAW - probably the most hopeless rocket you could imagine - but they had loads of stocks to use up - look at the Stats how many tanks were ever destroyed by a LAW/ Close to less than zero

[@imichael2411]

I agree, but it was never designed for tanks. Light armored vehicles, bunkers, etc. Never anything with much armor.

Did they hit anything with them 66s?

[@simonh6371]

Even if they did I don't think it would have done much damage. Fired one once myself, on Otterburn, if I remember the target was an old Ferret Scout vehicle, just there for target practice but still in one piece. I think a 66 would only do any damage against a lanny or other soft-skinned vehicle
