__A NOTE TO READERS__

W
hile this story is based on
actual A-10A missions during the Gulf War, it is a work of fiction and should
be treated as such. With the exception of historical figures, all characters
and call signs in this book are invented and not based on actual individuals. While
the bases and commands (other than the Devil Squadron) actually existed, they
have been completely rearranged and reconstructed. Liberties have been taken in
the name of dishing out an entertaining yarn.

Some
details regarding operations and rescue procedures which could conceivably be
of use to an enemy during combat have been omitted or obscured. They have not
affected the telling of the tale.

The
heroism and exploits of the characters in this book are but pale shadows of
that displayed by the men and women who actually served during the Gulf War.
