Missing Mission Information Found For Claim

in #veterans5 months ago

Finally, I found a record of the alternate mission during Desert Storm. I hope this helps with my VSO's upcoming FOIA for my service records. It's been over 25 years, so all of the NDAs should be expiring... woohoo!

The US deployment was code named Operation Desert Storm and was the largest deployment of US forces since Vietnam. As part of the build-up of US troops, JSOC had covertly deployed a Joint Special Operations Task Force (JSOTF), composed of several military Special Mission Units (SMUs), to the area. With the JSOTF initial mission no longer necessary, the task force was used to hunt for Iraqi mobile SCUD launchers in an operation code named Elusive Concept.

Things just might start moving along at the VA...
