Desert Storm Memorial Planned in West Plains this Friday

West Plains, MO. – The John T. Kirk VFW Post 1828 in West Plains will be hosting an event this Friday commemorating the end of Desert Storm and the Gulf War.

With this conflict taking place in the early Nineties, there are still many people in the Ozarks who remember the event, or even actively participated in it.
