How was desert storm and Vietnam similar?

Desert Storm (1991) was similar to the Spanish-American War of (1898). 1. Both Desert Storm and the Spanish-American War occurred in the '90s. Desert Storm in '91; Spanish-American War '98. 2. Both Desert Storm & Spanish-American War were short in duration; 45 days & 6 months respectively. 3. Both had similar casualties; Storm approximately 200, Spanish-American War approximately 385 dead. 4. Both Storm & Spanish/American War veterans received MASSIVE parades of victory upon their return home. 5. Both had singular heros: Storm-GEN Schwarzkopf; Spanish/American War-ADM Dewey. 6. Both were publicly cited by the press & politicians as having healed the wounds of a divided nation during the US Civil War (1861-1865) by the Spanish/American War; Vietnam War (1961-1975) by Desert Storm (President Bush Senior stated on nation wide television, "...We have beat the Vietnam Syndrome!"). 7. Both conflicts were followed by a global war: WW1 (1914-1918) followed the Spanish-American War for the 20th Century. The Global War (2001 to present) on terrorism followed Desert Storm for the 21st Century.
