Besides continuing a long history of worldwide peacekeeping, the commitment of US troops to the Gulf reunified the country and restored a national pride lost in the aftermath of Vietnam.
It also proved that the US armed forces were again the most capable military force in the world.

Armies of the Gulf War provides a comprehensive analysis, offering insights into the diverse military capabilities and strategies employed during this significant conflict.
