A 1982 graduate of West Point, Patrick Garman trained to fly helicopters and got his
chance at combat missions when he was deployed to the Middle East in September 1990,
in the buildup to Operation Desert Storm. Garman was amazed at how quickly Coalition
forces were able to move; Iraqi resistance was no match for sophisticated technology and
superior firepower. The war seemed to end all too soon in Garman's view.
