I found the Avenger" intriguing; and love the character Cal Dexter. However, there is one glaring mistake...on page 333 line eleven, "Within seconds, two F-16s on duty alert at Eglin Air Force Base in Pensacola were barreling down the runway, going straight to afterburn once they cleared the deck." NOTE: EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE IS NOT IN PENSACOLA...IT IS FORT WALTON BEACH, FLORIDA!!!!!
