It was actually really a strange event for me , first getting the phone call from my aunt , and then a few days later receiving a tattered and disintegrating photo album. I was honestly shocked that the photos were still in as good a shape as I received them. Apparently they had been moved to a storage shed along with many other things as my grand parents aged. Which is the only reason they survived. My aunt found them as they were emptying the building out and hauling old items to the dump. I plan on doing some digital restoration work as I get an opportunity to preserve them.

Interestingly enough I remember those SCUD attacks , and the 475th Quartermaster unit that was hit at Dhahran . SCUDS were something we were all afraid of even with the Patriot missile batteries.
