Recruiting threads are not the place for this. If you need to call attention to yourself the General Forums will provide a wider audiance for you to do so.

Couldn't agree more.

Yes you did.

The only way for me to get the boys to those Liberators for even one pass was to give up that 5K from 25 to 20. Even with blowing straight through, it was all defensive from that moment onward.  We could find no clear high blue and were pinched tight between several waves of fighters.  All I could do was try to get you guys down to a manageable altitude and speed, for our Zero's to have any kind of chance.  You guys did an excellent job at maintaining your advantage throughout the entire engagement.  As soon as I saw how you were managing the fight my heart sank as I realized we up against an disciplined force.

Even so...when we got down to <5K, I felt at one point we could carry the fight as we began knocking a few of you down.  But it wasn't to be, as you guys just did a great job covering eachother and working each kill together.  To even pull for a quick snapshot on a Lightning was to put ourselves in another's gunsight.  A sign of excellent teamwork and wingmanship on your part.

At one point a large friendly squadron was in range and could have tipped the scales in our favor but they chose to "steer around this furball"...is what we heard on vox.  Can you imagine?  Perhaps they were out of fireworks...I don't know.  Anyway, it's great to have the 56th back in FSO, and a good sound thrashing like you gave us last night is a good thing every now and then.

See you up!

You've been hanging around us and still want to join? We haven't gotten any prettier.

Maybe if you flew P47s you'd already be in. The 56th is a P47 squad ya know.  ;)

56th is an awesome Jug squad. Some of the best 47 pilots in the game, and just overall amazingly fun to fly with! Anyone looking to fly in a Jug squad or learn the Jug should fly with them!  :salute

Just be careful around me. Ask Latrobe what happens when there's lots of red around and I've got lots of E :D

I joined the 56th about a month ago and while I still suck in a jug, I suck a lot less now thanks to the help from the other guys in the squad.   Fun group of guys.
Don't tread on me.

Ray is a great addition to the Wolfpack and  -  he doesn't "suck" in a P-47.  I'll wing with you anytime.

56th is a great bunch of guys. I might switch to rooks just to fly with them again (also, that way LilMak cannot kill me as often).  :salute
