Good morning Desert Storm veterans. I will be holding with my VFW post in Oro Valley a commemoration ceremony for the 35th anniversary of Desert Storm and the Liberation of Kuwait on 28 Feb. If you live in Arizona or you were stationed here during Desert Storm please send me your picture with your unit, where you were at in the Gulf and your military branch of service. If you can attend, that will be awesome as we will have a Gold Star family attending. [email protected]
