Bill: thanks for the picture.
So the DS was commissioned by the AHF, not Franklin Mint!
I'm assuming the Franklin Mint "Desert Storm" I read about in a H. Brett note, was just a project, which ended in the Marto M9 bayonet, marked on the front ricasso with only "M9" and with a custom web assembly. No Desert Storm "markings" at all!!!!

I remember I saw in the Brett book a picture of a DS M9, similar to the one show in the magazine ad, but with the inscription "Operation Desert Shield".
