The Persian Gulf War was a war / Emmanuel Dubourg, chair.XC78-1/1-441-18E-PDF

"Since the end of these operations, many veterans of the Persian Gulf War have been calling for greater recognition of their role during this conflict, both in terms of commemorating their efforts and financial benefits. Their main demand is that their service be recognized as equivalent to that of Korean War veterans and that it be designated as “wartime service” rather than the current legal designation of “special duty service.” In their view, this change of designation would better recognize the specific risks of these operations, which were not limited to peacekeeping, and would result in more adequate financial compensation for disabilities resulting from participating in these operations"--Introduction, page 3.
