Desert Storm: 2nd Bomb Wing leads the air war
1st Lt. Russell Mathers, 596th Bomb Squadron B-52 Stratofortress copilot, flew El Lobo II in Operation "Secret Squirrel," a secret mission that marked the beginning of Operation Desert Storm. The "Secret Squirrel" mission involved the first use of GPS-guided conventional air-launched cruise missiles that struck combat targets of Saddam Hussein's military, destroying key points of his military's communications infrastructure.
