IMPORTANT - 11/21 Friday Squad Ops Cancelled
« on: November 21, 2003, 09:56:25 AM »
Gentlemen,

Its my sad duty to inform you that the Friday Squad Ops scheduled for tonight is cancelled. It will be rescheduled for next friday 11/28.

However, I have to check with other events to make sure nothing else is scheduled for that day. If an event is (such as KOTH) then we will have to reschedule for Dec. 5th.

The frame is being cancelled becasue the Allied CiC for frame 3 informed Daddog this morning he could not get orders created for tonight's event. He did then ask one of the others in his squads to try to put orders together.

But in my opinion this leaves almost no time for the orders to be disseminated to the allied squads (if orders are created). Many squads would probably not get orders until they get home from work and their C.O.s would be then trying to brief their pilots at probably T-30 at what they were flying and what their mission is, special rules, etc., etc.

That is a shame. I landed frames 1 & 2 and was one kill away from being an ace. ;)

Well this certainly shows the importance of Frame C.O.’s doing what is expected of them, and if they are unable then to pass the ball off to a squadie in a timely manner. I had sent the orders out last Sunday.

I'm certain the AK's won't make their quota for the 28th. I know I won't make it.

I doubt my squad can get our usual numbers.  Most likely we will just call it and end it with two frames. Will be up to ghostdancer.

The 68th Lightning Lancers will not be able to field the full TOD squad because of the holiday. Man that stinks I look forward to Friday nights. Great job who ever dropped the ball  :aok

Its under discussion with the other friday night CMs about the schedule. We might have to just end Daddog's TWO FRONT WAR squad ops now.

Not only do we have a Thanksgiving issue in the states. But skernsk's squad ops was schedule to run:

Dec. 5th
Dec. 12th
Dec. 19th

If I shove him back a week that puts him into X-mas week. And then followng X-mas week is new years. So if I shove him back basically either 2 weeks on and then 2 weeks off and then finish. Or we wait until January for the next squad ops.

Will get back to you after resolution and decision made by the friday CMs, myself and flossy.

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


No No No, this can't be right.  I mean I put on my genuine sheepskin coat and polished up my rank to lead the dogs in this divine mission and what do they do???????????????


They Cancell it.

Ugh.

I might be there Friday next week.  I will be in Klamath Falls Oregon visiting my bro but I have been trying to get him to get into Aces High.  Maybe a squad flight will do it.

Will be on later though.

(BTW, I really do have a sheepskin lined bomber jacket that weighs about 40 pounds.  It will be great if I ever get stationed at the North Pole.)

great, Friday Night Squad Ops with the Mongrels is the only time I ever log onto AH.

Highly disappointing.  The CT better be a good setup tonight, or I'm gonna puke.  I mean killshooter myself on Puke.  ;)
