That's one of those things that makes me laugh when people accuse the US gov't or military of various conspiracies. They can keep things quiet for awhile, but they eventually become known. They NEVER try disinformation or partial truths.
Existence of aliens? Yup, they know but say they don't and have offered all this falsified evidence to prove it.
However they couldn't do something as simple as what Timothy said to make enemies rely on GPS as much as we do and then screw it up on them when push comes to shove. Instead we let everyone use it but make the heaviest use of it ourselves so GPS jammers become a hot commodity.

I was 11 years old at the time. My initial memory of DS was walking out to the driveway to pick up the newspaper, on the front of which was the large bold headline declaring the start of the conflict. Funny how certain events like that stick in one's mind.

I was 25.
One of the things I remember most was the story about a guy practicing baseball while in the desert and dreaming of playing for the Dodgers. Lasorda gave him a tryout when they returned home but he didn't make it.

Another was a guy sitting in a humvee that had the left rear tire blown off after driving over a mine being interviewed. He was still a little shaken up to say the least.

I was sitting in my tent...counting my winnings from the company pool as to when Desert Storm would actually kick off. Was off by 11 minutes, but still the closest out of 50 $5.00 entries.
