. . . Looked it up and found no one Google cares about was calling them that.
However, Google did find something similar, at GQ [onetime Gentleman’s Quarterly], where it’s a “suicide squad,” tho nothing in the story justifies that designation, which GQ itself says “sucks.” (So why use it? I do not know.)
Anyhow, an earlier article, like the “suicide squad” article bubbling over with (gentlemanly) praise and respect, calls them a “Murderer’s Row.”
Other possibilities come to mind: The Hunting Party (shouting “Tally ho,” (there goes the red-headed s.o.b., let’s get him).
Or: The Gashouse Gang (1934 St. Louis Cardinals: using “rough and tumble tactics”) . . .
The list goes on, or it could . . .
