Chosen as one of the units to spearhead the British contribution to the allied build-up in Saudi Arabia, the 1st Battalion The Staffordshire Regiment underwent a massive upheaval as it was reinforced and mobilized for its task. After reaching the Gulf area, the battalion underwent a period of acclimatization and intensive desert training, right up to the point at which it was launched into battle as part of 7th Armoured Brigade, in Operation Desert Storm.
