Before I joined the “Birds of Prey”… In an effort to really annoy one of their members, I formed my own squad called the “Birds of Clay, Pigeons”.

Unfortunately, I had no idea so many of the BOPs had such a good sense of humor…  Before long, I was asked to join a few missions... and eventually the squad itself.

As for the Birds of Prey Vultures... That was not photo-shopped. I remember seeing it in the MA... And I was plenty upset, as I had wanted to start that wing myself! Mostly just because I miss my old squad nose art!

My password at work had to contain exactly 8 characters… I chose Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

As taken from
North American Birds of Prey

OTHER NORTH AMERICAN BIRDS OF PREY include hawks, falcons, owls, vultures and condors.

There.... it is on the internet.... It must be true!!!  :D

Actually, you can have the same name...case in point is my crazy crew.  At one time we were 4 separate 'squads' (our wings), all with same in game name (III./ JG44 Night Hawks).  the  unique key for the squads, methinks, is the squad CO.

Now, we consolidated to two wings (2 in game squads) and both use the same squad name.  knuckels is the head of one, jeb the other.

GL fixing your problemo Jolly...hope they dont cause any issues

Since when has a corpse rotting in the sun met the technical definition of "prey"?  

Past tense: prey,   the maggot infested chunk of meat formerly known as "prey", but "prey" in the present tense?


Granted, in game, "vulchers" "prey" upon the low, slow, and too lazy or dumb to up from an uncapped field.....  but is it really the same?
