FULL COLOR reprint of 1998 study from the United States Naval
Historical Center. This volume describes in detail the U.S. Navy's
role in Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm, one of the most
successful campaigns in American military history. The work
describes the contribution to victory of Navy men and women who
served afloat in the carrier-based fighter and attack squadrons,
the surface warships, amphibious and mine countermeasures vessels,
submarines, and logistic and hospital ships. It also relates the
activities of American sailors ashore or close inshore who
protected the vital harbors of northern Saudi Arabia, provided
Marine combat units with medical and construction assistance, flew
vital supplies to forward areas, or coordinated all this activity
on Navy and joint staffs. Overall, it is a story of Navy men and
women, regular and reserve, who unselfishly answered their nation's
call to arms when aggression threatened peace in the Persian Gulf.
