Former President George H.W. Bush commemorated the 20th anniversary of the initiation of military operations to liberate Kuwait from Iraq by inviting Desert Storm veterans to a discussion among members of his foreign policy team and military advisers at that time and Kuwaiti officials. A video history of the Gulf War was shown which former President Bush narrated. Former Ambassador Ryan Crocker moderated.

The program opened with the colors and national anthem and closed with Lee Greenwood singing “Proud to Be an American.”

"20th Anniversary Commemoration of the Beginning of Military Operations to Liberate Kuwait" was a Lenore and Francis Humphrys International Speakers Program event in Texas A&M University’s Reed Arena co-sponsored by the Bush School of Government and Public Service and The Shell Oil Company. close
