Sorry, I watched Desert Storm in the Dormitory at Whiteman AFB (with a keg and a bunch of hootin' and hollerin' as the first Sortie of the war came back without a scratch).
Closest I got to combat was cooking for Marines and Army (10th Mountain).
My hat goes off to you all though, who put your butts on the line while schmo's like me drank beer and watched tv.

I was at KFOR Main and Camp Bondsteel, I was there in 04 and afgan in 04 Iraqi was 04 also. I was attached to a close protection team while I was deployed. I was the only Marine that was in my group my main client was a Army General. Hence the reason for being in so many places in the course of a year.
bambam, that sounds pretty cool. you got to go all over, and I'm sure being a general security had its perks.
There were plenty of perks one was growing your hair longer so you didn't stick out like a sore thumb when you were in other countries. So no high and tight for a year. Not to mention NATO picking up the bill on almost everything. But there were the bad as well..... But most of you know as vets of wars what I mean.
