>>108669781991 was a weird year. Freshly democratized Czechoslovakia was part of the Coalition, and so was Syria, despite beefing a few years earlier with the US over sponsoring terrorism. Also a bunch of other Arab countries, despite Saddam shelling Israel (who wasn't even involved in the conflict) with scuds.
The most telling relic of how weird those times were are the Desert Shield Komandirskies. Soviet watch manufacturer Vostok made the Komandirskie line as military watches for the Soviet Army, but in 1990 they put out a commemorative model for US servicemen partaking in Desert Shield.
