28 FEBRUARY 1991 – OPERATION DESERT STORM ENDS

Over the course of just 100 hours, U.S. and allied ground forces in Iraq and Kuwait decisively defeated the battle-hardened and dangerous Iraqi military, and President George H.W. Bush declared a victorious ceasefire on 28 FEB.
During air and ground ops, the U.S.-led coalition destroyed over 3,000 tanks, 1,400 armored personnel carriers, and 2,200 artillery pieces along with countless other vehicles. This was achieved at a cost to the U.S. of 98 soldiers killed and 105 non-hostile deaths.

With Kuwait liberated, U.S. forces immediately turned to humanitarian missions. They sorted out refugees, assisted the Kuwaitis in reoccupying their city, and helped them begin the long process of rebuilding.
