Task Force Lion

Abstract

Saudi Arabia and Kuwait required air defense protection from Iraq. Prior to the pre-deployment preparation the battalion intelligence shop was in need of a senior Noncommissioned Officer. SFC Brimhall was selected for this position. During the pre-deployment exercises an officer was appointed as the intelligence officer. The security forces in Eskan Village, Saudi Arabia and Camp Doha, Kuwait consisted of two separate organizations. Coordinating became difficult from the intelligence NCOIC to the two different security forces in two separate countries. The Security forces were placed in strategic locations throughout Kuwait. Training was carefully planned and would never allow the security force to lock and load without prior approval from the security force NCOIC on site. SFC Brimhall briefed the main threat was Mr. Hussein; however the real threat was Osama Bin Laden.
