George H. W. Bush was the President and so commander-in-chief over the military operation known as Desert Storm. This operation was the US response to Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. Bush did not personally lead the operation.

The Iraqi forces were expelled from Kuwait. George Bush announced a suspension of fighting. Saddam Hussein agreed to withdraw his forces from Kuwait but announced to his subjects that he had won the war. After 6 weeks of operation desert storm (the intense aerial bombardment of military targets and communications centres in Iraq and Kuwait) the end came surprisingly swiftly, after only 100 hours of the ground war launched in Iraq and Kuwait.
George Bush Senior removed Hussein's forces from Kuwait during Operation Desert Storm from January thru February 1991 (less than a 60 day military campaign). George Bush Junior invaded the capital of Iraq and removed Saddam Hussein from power during Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003. Both father & son presidents had congressional approval.
Example: Operation Desert Storm (Jan/Feb 1991) was a military campaign to eject Iraqi forces from Kuwait. Mission was accomplished. Operation=Campaign
