U.S. list of most-wanted Iraqis explained

In April 2003, the United States drew up a list of most-wanted Iraqis, consisting of the 55 members of the deposed Ba'athist Iraqi regime whom they most wanted to capture. The list was turned into a set of playing cards for distribution to United States-led Coalition troops. Later, in 2003, the list was renumbered so that it mostly conformed to the order of the playing cards (see most-wanted Iraqi playing cards).
