Operation Desert Shield

For Operation Desert Shield (the first U.S. war in the Persian Gulf in 1990), Philip Morris set up booths at military installations throughout the country to have families of those deployed for Operation Desert Shield record 80,000 holiday greetings to their loved ones in Saudi Arabia in a Marlboro voice-activated Christmas card.
