Hi folks

I'm after any photos that are available of Humvees...especially M998s, during Desert Storm in 1991. I'm finding them very hard to come by - online they are scarce as the conflict predates digital photography. I have some photos in books but if anyone could share any references - in print or online, I'd be very grateful.

cheers

Rob

Hi Rob
You'll find a few here (but I'm not sure about the last one being an ODS one...)

Regarding that last pic in the first link.. those green hills in the background don't look like they're in the Gulf area. That car is an old Yugo.. and that's a mosque in the background.. Maybe Bosnia, Croatia.. something like that?

I guess you're right. The Yugo licence plate doesn't look Iraqi either If you do a right click for the picture properties, you'll see it's called "kosovo6" . ..( I should have done that in the first place !)
