AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Great iconic 2003 'Iraq most wanted' cards, including Hoessein, made by the United States Playing Cards Company, Cincinnati, see photos.

During the 2003 invasion of Iraq by a United States–led coalition, the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency developed a set of playing cards to help troops identify the most-wanted members of President Saddam Hussein's government, mostly high-ranking members of the Iraqi Regional Branch of the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party or members of the Revolutionary Command Council; among them were some of Hussein's family members. The cards were officially named the "personality identification playing cards". As of 2021, all but four of the 52 most wanted have died or been either killed or captured, eleven of whom have been released. The card game is complete with the box and it even has the jokers and additional cards. Great set.

Cool and iconic item for your US military collection!
