If you like its history and battles, if you think it could be representative for what you want your squad to be, then go for it.
GL.
ty. i think we're kind of set now for a name and group. it will be No. XIX Squadron RAF, 91st BG USAAF
no. 19 flew during the BoB, got quite a tally of kills too! after that, and some time in france and the lower countries, it helped out in norway for a while, before returning to fortress europe, where they flew mustangs and spits of many variants, and helped during D-Day. after that, it was heavily involved in the war over germany, and they flew many escort missions with the 8th AF.
so, to keep to the history, and to keep the squad open and international, we will also have a bomber wing, the 91st bombardment group, which was home to the memphis belle, and many famous bombers of the 324th bombardment squadron
so yeah, we're a squad for everyone, of any nationality. we wont only fly RAF and USAAF planes, the name is only there because it fits with history.
so, if you're looking for lots of fun with many experienced pilots, flying fighters, running bomber missions, maybe an occasional tank run, then give me a shout!
the name itself, is just the official one, and kinda boring. the squad will have a nickname that we will refer to ourselves by, and use as a general squad name, instead of all the numbers
except right now, it's been hard to think of a nickname that links both squads. so, any ideas would be most welcome!
anyways, if any of you have any questions, or think you might like to join, just PM me, and i'll get you sorted.
