The first Persian Gulf War, was the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988), in which nearly 40 US Sailors were killed when an Iraqi jet fired a missile at the US Navy frigate USS Stark. Sometime later, the USN warship, USS Vincennes shot down (accidently) an Iranian airliner with a surface to air missile. US Servicemen returning home from this duty received satisfactory home comings.
US Service personnel returning home from Operation Desert Storm (Jan/Feb 1991-a 45 day campaign) received a home-coming not seen in the United States since WW2; Parades, Television coverage, Presidential speeches ("...We have beat the Vietnam Syndrome!" President Bush Senior).
US Service personnel returning home from Operations Iraqi Freedom (Iraq) and Enduring Freedom (Afghanistan) are receiving positive treatment upon their return; according to TV newscoverage, mostly at airports.
