i don't know about the inverted elements of the date stamp; they're fairly uncommon, but I don't know how avidly collected. The free franking is definitely collectible and would generate a lot of interest among military and APO collectors.

I agree with David, and can add the following for your nice Desert Storm 09809 cover:
APO AE 09809 SAUDI ARABIA KHAMIS MUSHAYT

thanks everyone, and that link was fantastic!
I have 3 covers, 2 with inverted date or PM in the cancel and one free "Desert Storm" cover. All 3 are sent to companies and not philatelic mail. Any thoughts as to if these are common and or collectable?
