À propos de ce contenu audio
Desert Storm — The Real Lessons Learned goes beyond the highlight reels, green-night-vision footage, and easy myths of America’s most celebrated modern war. In this episode of Mil History Talk, Hope and Brian dig into what Operation Desert Storm actually taught the U.S. military—and just as importantly, what it didn’t.
With her trademark wit, pop-culture analogies, and a quick nod to Clausewitz (because of course), Hope challenges the idea of Desert Storm as a flawless blueprint for future war. Brian grounds the conversation with sober analysis, unpacking operational success, logistical brilliance, and the institutional assumptions that followed. Together, they explore how overwhelming victory shaped doctrine, expectations, and strategic blind spots that later conflicts would brutally expose.
This is not a takedown—it’s a recalibration. If you’ve ever wondered how one stunning victory could still leave dangerous lessons misunderstood, this episode connects Desert Storm to the wars that followed—and the ones still ahead.
