The US Army’s VIIth Corps advances across the desert in southern Iraq, west of Kuwait, during the ground war, when coalition forces invaded Iraq and Kuwait to oust Saddam Hussein’s forces. In the lead is an M109 155mm self-propelled Howitzer with an M992 Field Artillery Ammunition Supply Vehicle (FAASV) behind. In the background is an M1A1 Abrams tank. When the ground war phase of Desert Storm kicked off on 24 February 1991, the invasion of Kuwait was led by the US Marines, coalition partners, and some US Army elements. The far left flank of the coalition was guarded by the XVIIIth Airborne Corps (in a kind of giant cavalry mission, forming a screen, as well as blocking Iraqi lines of retreat). The main effort was delivered by five heavy divisions of VIIth Corps with the Armored Cavalry Regiment, the 2nd ACR, in the lead where they were the first to encounter Iraq’s Republican Guard.
