John Andreas Olsen provides a coherent and comprehensive examination of the origins, evolution and implementation of this campaign. His findings derive from official military and political documentation, interviews with United States Air Force officers who were closely involved with the planStudies in Air PowerPersian Gulf War, 1991Aerial operations, AmericanAir powerUnited StatesHistory20th centuryElectronic books.Persian Gulf War, 1991Aerial operations, American.Air powerHistory956.7044/248Olsen John Andreas1968,973330MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910464384603321Strategic air power in Desert Storm2214382UNINA
