Operation Wolf (オペレーションウルフ , Operēshon Urufu ) is a one-player shooter video game made by Taito in 1987 .
 It spawned three sequels: "Operation Thunderbolt" (1988 ), "Operation Wolf 3" (1994 ) and "Operation Tiger" (1998 ).
Mission: Thunderbolt is a roguelike computer game with a futuristic storyline.
 It was originally developed and released on DEC mainframes as Doomsday 2000, a four-part game, and later ported to both Mac OS and Windows.
 "Mission: Thunderbolt" is part 1 of the Jaunt Trooper series and was released on both Mac OS and Windows.
 Part 2, Mission: Firestorm, was only released for Mac OS.
 The game was one of the first commercially released roguelikes.
 It put a graphical front end and a full set of sounds in place of the ASCII text traditional to roguelikes.
 It was also unique in the sheer number of actions/interactions possible.
 Being closed source, many mysteries of the game were never fully resolved.
Carl Henry Dodd (April 21, 1925 – October 13, 1996) was a United States Army soldier and a recipient of the U.S. military's highest decoration, the Medal of Honor, for his actions in the Korean War.

Operation Thunderbolt, known in Israel as Mivtsa Yonatan (מבצע יונתן, literally "Operation Jonathan") (aka 'Entebbe: Operation Thunderbolt title in the US), is a 1977 Israeli film directed by Menahem Golan and stars Klaus Kinski, Yehoram Gaon and Sybil Danning.
 The film is based on an actual event – the hijacking of a flight by terrorists and the freeing of Israeli hostages on July 4, 1976.
 The operation was known as (Operation Entebbe, military code name: "Operation Thunderbolt") at Entebbe Airport in Uganda.
 "Operation Thunderbolt" follows the events following the flight's takeoff until the hostages' return to Israel.
Operation Wolf 3 is an arcade game developed by East Technology and released in 1994 by Taito.
 It has no connection to the two previous games in the series, "Operation Wolf" and "Operation Thunderbolt", other than the title and controls.
 Instead of the military theme of the first two games, "Operation Wolf 3" casts players as counter-terrorist operatives.
 It is the only game in the series to feature graphics composed of digitized photographs, similar to "Lethal Enforcers".
 The game also features entirely different gun controllers from the previous games.
Unternehmen Donnerkeil (Operation Thunderbolt) was the codename for a German military operation of the Second World War.
 "Donnerkeil" was designed as an air superiority operation to support the "Kriegsmarine's " (German Navy) Operation Cerberus, also known as the Channel Dash.
Operation Entebbe was a successful counter-terrorist hostage-rescue mission carried out by commandos of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) at Entebbe Airport in Uganda on 4 July 1976.
 A week earlier, on 27 June, an Air France plane with 248 passengers had been hijacked by two members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – External Operations (PFLP-EO) under orders of Wadie Haddad (who had earlier broken away from the PFLP of George Habash), and two members of the German Revolutionary Cells.
 The hijackers had the stated objective to free 40 Palestinian and affiliated militants imprisoned in Israel and 13 prisoners in four other countries in exchange for the hostages.
 The flight, which had originated in Tel Aviv with the destination of Paris, was diverted after a stopover in Athens via Benghazi to Entebbe, the main airport of Uganda.
 The Ugandan government supported the hijackers, and dictator Idi Amin personally welcomed them.
 After moving all hostages from the aircraft to a disused airport building, the hijackers separated all Israelis and several non-Israeli Jews from the larger group and forced them into a separate room.
 Over the following two days, 148 non-Israeli hostages were released and flown out to Paris.
 Ninety-four, mainly Israeli, passengers along with the 12-member Air France crew, remained as hostages and were threatened with death.

 The US version was also the second game from the company to feature the Federal Bureau of Investigation's "Winners Don't Use Drugs" screen in its attract mode (the first was "Tank Force", which was released earlier in 1991) - it was also sold as a conversion kit for Taito Corporation's "Operation Thunderbolt" (which was released in 1988 as a sequel to "Operation Wolf", which also used a Yamaha YM2151 FM sound chip, for its effects as well as its music, but it used an OKI MSM-5205 PCM sound chip for speech synthesis, as opposed to a C140).
