Iraqi names would amount to over a hundred thousand; Coalition forces would amount to less than about 500 names. The US lost less than 200 personnel during the campaign. A good portion of those from friendly fire (new hi-tech weapons). There might be a monument (list) in certain VFW posts; check with them. Be advised, the US lost personnel during the Iran-Iraq War of 1980-1988; the USN warship USS Stark was hit by an Iraqi missile...killing several US Sailors, possibly over 30 crewmen killed. Who ever you speak with, they'll want to know WHICH war in the Gulf you're talking about. Few, if anyone, can confuse Desert Storm with anything else. But everyone gets confused with Golf Wars 1, 2, 3, etc. Know one knows which one was the 1st Gulf War. The United States Military commenced with Operation Desert Storm in January 1991...advise you stick with that (stick with the facts).
