Target Saddam

After his capture by elite Iraqi forces, Captain Bristol Wong uncovers a brilliant piece of intelligence in HOGS #5: TARGET SADDAM – Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein may be en route to a small village only a hundred miles behind enemy lines. It’s a long shot, especially for skeptical CentCom generals who don’t want to risk their assets for such slim odds. But Colonel Michael “Skull” Knowlington pushes for action, volunteering his A-10A Devil Squadron to set up an ambush for the Iraqi leader. Because it’s not just Saddam he wants – Wong also believes he spotted downed rookie Hog pilot Lieutenant William “BJ” Dixon in the area. If there is any chance at all that BJ is alive, Knowlington, Hog Devil Squadron leader Captain John “Doberman” Glenon and wingmate Captain Thomas Peter “A-Bomb” O’Rourke want to be the ones to bring him home.

Hogs #5: TARGET SADDAM is the fifth of six novels in the Jim DeFelice’s HOGS First Gulf War series, focusing on a colorful group of brave pilots flying A-10As during the First Gulf War in 1991. #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Jim DeFelice (American Sniper), based this dramatic, historical action series on actual events. Filled with blistering action and gritty authenticity, this is a powerful and exciting tribute to the men and women who flew these hard-working, air-to-ground fighter-bombers.
