Vivid memories of them howling over kuwait city

warning of scud incoming in 2003. we were based in north kuwait desert pre invasion and scud warnings were commonplace but over the net. used to drive to camp arifjan regularly for briefings and had to go through kuwait city so hearing the sirens howl as we driv by the city felt surreal.
