UNIFORMS/GEAR OF DESERT STORM/IRAQI FREEDOM




Desert Storm was a very different war than those fought in previous times.  Advances in technology delivered pin-point accuracy missiles and TV cameras to every aspect of the fight.  Advances in military uniforms were also introduced.  The desert nature of the terrain demanded  the use of desert camouflage.  Chemical threats and night vision also required modifications to the clothing so as to better manage the challenges posed by the enemy.

This page provides a comprehensive look at the uniforms from the period.
