Karl Lenker


Karl Lenker

Lieutenant Colonel, USAF (Retired)

Karl, an A-10 Warthog fighter pilot and combat veteran of Bosnia, logged more than 29,000 hours in the air. Action is his middle name. Others write about on-the-edge adventures; Karl Lenker lives them. Recently retired from piloting Boeing jets around the world for Delta Air Lines, Karl now flies life-saving EMS rescue missions, chases offshore race boats for television, works on television and movie shoots, and explores Central Florida swamps for alligator conservationists—all in helicopters.

An avid outdoorsman for most of his life, Karl is a gold-medal champion rifle and pistol marksman. He holds a Bachelor of Science in psychology from the University of Maryland. His writing credits include feature articles for the Jet Gazette and The Free State Guardian, as well as military publications with statewide circulation in Maryland.

Cover of Final Trumpet

Final Trumpet

It is November 1993. The chaos and lawlessness of Somalia has reached its apex in the wake of the “Blackhawk Down” debacle of a month earlier and the American government struggles with its foreign policy options. In neighboring Kenya, a young couple honeymooning on safari are wickedly attacked by ruthless elephant poachers—he is murdered, she is kidnapped. Their fathers, who served together as Army Rangers in Vietnam, agonize over the loss (they and the incompetent Kenyan police believe both are dead) and choke on the certain truth that justice will never be served. That is, until they decide to do what any outraged former Special Forces soldiers would do…hunt the bastards down themselves.
