Desert Storm was beautiful. Our Air Force and helicopters pounded the Iraqis who were stuck in the desert like tethered goats. An Air Force retired COL and military historian proposed the left hook to flank the Iraqi Divisions. The Marines fixed Iraqi Divisions to the East. 1ST CAV did feints up the middle to fix Iraqi Divisions to the South. It was quite exquisite for us to go West with heavy mechanized divisions. Many of the Iraqi Armored Divisions knew of our presence only after their tanks got blown up. The Center of Gravity, true strength, for the Iraqis were their Republican Guard Divisions and we rolled over them or they retreated to Iraq. The Iraqi Army decided to maneuver and retreat on the Highway of Death. They were in a long column heading to Iraq. The column formation is the worst formation when engaged by the enemy.
