There are 4 Persian Gulf wars.
Anglo-Iraqi 1941
Operation Desert Storm/Granby 1990-91
Operation Iraqi Freedom 2003-2011
There are veterans who live (and continue to live) from all four wars, although not many still survive from the Anglo-Iraqi War if only because the war happened so long ago.
Which gulf war? There were 3 of them.
It is not in any single country.
Yes, such as the Persian Gulf War.
It is not "at" any one country, it is surrounded by eight countries.
It has ports on the Arabian (Persian) Gulf, which is a part of the Indian Ocean.
Any conflict can be avoided, if the leaders want to avoid it.
The VA (Veterans Administration) has enlarged it's medical programs to administer better services to US veterans.
Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Oman (exclave of Musandam), Iraq, and Iran all border the Persian Gulf. Any other country would qualify.
Any time the world's oil supply in the Persian Gulf is endangered by conflict...it's called the Persian Gulf crisis. If Axis warships conducted operations in or around the Persian Gulf during WWII, it would have been considered a "Persian Gulf Crisis." If the Arab-Israeli wars of the late 1940's, 1950's, or the 1967 Six Day War or Yom Kipper War of '73 had been fought along the borders of the Persian Gulf...then it would have been another "Persian gulf Crisis." Other "Persian Gulf Crisis's" have been: 1. Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988) 2. Operation Desert Shield (1990-the build up of coalition forces in Saudi-Arabia/Southwest Asia). 3. Operation Desert Storm (Jan/Feb 1991-military force used to eject Iraq from Kuwait with forces built up during Operation Desert Shield the previous year). 4. Operation Iraqi Freedom (2003- the removal of Saddam from power in Iraq).
Some characteristics of Gulf war syndrome are a wide range of acute and chronic symptoms, including fatigue, muscle pain, cognitive problems, rashes and diarrhea. Gulf war syndrome stroke approximately 250,000 of the 697,000 veterans and is a condition with serious consequences.
No, also it is called the Arabian Gulf not Persian.
