This is an anthology of articles from the U.S. Naval Institute Proceedings, Marine Corps Gazette, and Field Artillery, messages and briefings from senior officers; and accompanying task organization, chronology, and bibliography, is to serve as an interim reference for use within the Marine Corps and for answering inquiries from other government agencies and the general public concerning Marine activities and operations in the Persian Gulf, until the History and Museums Division completes an intended series of monographs dealing with the major Marine commands in the area.

The 26 entries comprising this anthology provide a general overview of Marine involvement in the Persian Gulf conflict. Two additional appendices, one showing the task organization of I Marine Expeditionary Force in February 1991 and another giving a chronology of significant events; involving Marines in the Persian Gulf from August 1990 to June 1991, have been included.

Some of the chapters are: Getting Marines To the Gulf; Squinting at Death: The Desert Snipers; Saudi Christmas: The Marines Banter and Brave the Cold; Message to members of I Marine Expeditionary Force, 23 Feb 91; CENTCOM News Briefing; Special Trust and Confidence Among the Trail-Breakers; Porous Minefields, Dispirited Troops and a Dog Named Pow; "Desertions Really Hurt Them."; Cluster Bombs at Teatime; Allies Used a Variation of Trojan Horse Ploy; Storming the Desert with the Generals; Marine Air: There When Needed; The 1st Marine Division in the Attack; Rolling With the 2d Marine Division; The 3d Marines in Desert Storm; F/A-18Ds Go to War; Artillery Raids in Southwestern Kuwait; The Opening of DESERT STORM: From the Frontlines; If It Didn't Have a White Flag, We Shot It; Operation PROVIDE COMFORT: Humanitarian and Security Assistance in Northern Iraq; Into a Sea of Refugees: HMM-264; The Fourth Estate as a Force Multiplier; Persian Gulf War Chronology August 1990 - June 1991; Selected Annotated Bibliography
