What losses did the US have in the gulf war?
USS Stark (Frigate), 38 US Sailors killed when struck by an Iraqi launched missile in 1987, during the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988) in the Persian Gulf. _____________________________________________________________ The Iran-Iraq War and the Gulf War were two separate wars, fought two years apart. The casualties on the USS Stark were the only ones of the Iran-Iraq War as the US did not take either side, but US Navy frigates did escort tankers of many nations in the Persian Gulf which were "reflagged" with the US flag so that an attack on them would constitute an attack on the US. Despite the attack on the Stark, the US still did not go to war with Iraq at that point. The US and other countries of the Gulf Coalition did not go to war with Iraq until Iraq invaded Kuwait in August of '90. To answer the original question, exact US casualties in the Gulf War are unknown to this contributor, but they were very light for operations the size of Desert Shield and Desert Storm. In Desert Shield more US soldiers died from accidents than Iraqi weapons. The Gulf War has been compared to the Spanish-American War because it was also short and glorious, and more US troops died from malaria than from Spanish 7.92mm bullets.
