Without going back say 4 pages, did Arlo post anymore funny pics?

Did the dingleberries defending Voss figure out it was not worth it?


Is this going to hit 2000?????

I wondered (aloud sometimes) why they didn't just stay home and fly......  ??

Oh really? Well, as a former RR dweeb do yanno what bothered ME? It was the FR guys and their smug, superior attitude that if the FM was correct all they needed was an icepack under their balls to get the complete sensation of actually flying at 25k.

And the WORST part of AW was all the FR scenario guys trying to recruit RR pilots into participating in them. I signed up as a tail gunner on a B-17 once and after about fifteen minutes into the flight I decided to check my e-mails and BOOM, we got shot down.

What kind of crap is that? :confused:

I damn near went to Fighter Ace.

Of all that I read, the most accurate appraisal of Voss and all of his antics was presented by Lazs....it's not what he did or said or pretended to be....that is fairly simple to understand. It is his lack of remorse and his refusal to stand down.

I could tell you all many things, none of which would serve any of us. The fact of the matter is this....Voss is a lonely and unhappy man who never achieved what he had hoped to in his life. He took advantage of those around him who really tried to help and the worst part of it all is this....he remains unrepentent and lacks the humility to simply say I'm sorry.

I spoke to Mike (Doom) yesterday and he will be reading this work of art....don't feel too sorry for him....he's a happy man who always found the best side of all of this silliness....make sure to say hi and welcome him to our little world.

I remember Doom and docDoom having some "discussions" over that handle in WB that were pretty funny.

It's almost an odd coincidence that there's a Doom flying in the Hornet's as Voss's squaddie.

Different guy.  Doom in the Hornets used to be known as the <.U.> The Vowel of Doom.

I think this is already the all time winner.

The previous winner was "Why the Betties Died" and it's numbers were cumlulative across three different boards.

I bet Westy knows the answer for sure.

It's yet another tale of an RR tail gunner that got bored on climb-out, derelicted his sworn Doody (tm), and caused the loss of his airplane and all hands aboard - because he was asleep at the switch.

There ya go......  mystery solved.

It doesn't surprise me, That hornets were on voss side in this post. They knew he was VOSS. One of the hornets left thier squad wanted to join the 367th.  MDM comes in our squad and tell's entire squad metatron is VOSS. Well MDM last 2 days in our squad before some of us ask that he be thrown out.  



 2nd point 418 hornets have guys killing shade accounts, and When 1 does it and CO is told about it and BUSHER says hell I don't care i'm leaving ah soon anyway. Then you can see why they keep VOSS aka metatron.

    Voss is funny think he knows alot and will try to point out small details too try to shift thoughts.



  Lastly It is probally my fault Jaxxo posted. I always told squadies that Voss seem okay as far as I could tell. and living in Missouri Show me state I didn't take it to heart. But now after google searchs and other info guess my money is on HE did it .


VOSS please watch below  its time
