17/18 and i remember it well.  *sigh* those were the days, Kuwait was invaded and the whole world agreed it was a 'good thing' to go in.  Felt a lot better about it then, and man those explosions were cool looking if nothing else... best bit was watching the carbon filaments mess up the electricity supplies, clever.

:D

I was 25, and was heading home from work when I heard on the radio that the bombs were falling. My roommate and I sat there and watched CNN for about three days straight!

I was in middle school during the first Gulf War.  Don't remember how old I was, I guess I could start counting.  I was in 7th or 8th grade, so figure 13-14.

Just curious as to age of those who have an opinion now, compared to how old they were when we were faced with this problem then.
