yeah, you're right.I think the 1st gulf war was the original, with CNN covering it, after sadam invaded Kuwait the first time, I was on a work course, and we'd all just got back from the bar very pissed as it kicked off, and we watched for hours on sombody's TV (Aug 1990), the next day on the course was carnage haha.
The 2nd was 2003 (march), and I was actually at work in support of what was going on, in a bunker in NW London.
The counter invasion (of Iraq) was carefully planned to be under the cover of a significant (and very convenient) dust storm, that had been forecast about 6 days out, the bombs and missiles went in before the dust storm, then the troop invasion followed, under the cover of the dust.
mental really, thinking back...
out dancing/drinking in town of an evening,
then back home for televised war.
