This sounds like fun, although I think we'll need some practice as a squad before we attempt something like this... but I'm up for it down the road if S.A.P.P. would want to.

Found the thread Jeepie.  Count me in - you'd better not need my call sign or contact info dewd.

If there's enough of us we may all by flyin' the razorback variant - due to the damn ENY. :mad:

  Barring that, I'll be sportin' my 47N and a chubby.

It would be nice to meet in an early arena, but the planes are just not available, Orange is usually full, should all meet in blue.

Ok, so we're still on for 2pm EST / 11am PST today. I'll try to get into orange if there is enough room but we'll stay late war if possible. Rooks is gonna be our country unless, as Caz1 stated, we get ENY'd into razorbacks. In that event, we'll go lowest numbers.

See you all on there...

Was a great time today, JUGS.  Fun flying with you guys.  Thanks for putting it together Jeep.

And to the AAs for the fights!

Hey all, Just wanted to say it was a good time being target practice with all of ya, I think most of us did a pretty good job of doing what we came to do on each sorty we flew.  Great job on the 109's, they didn't have a chance.  Splitting the group up and some of us going back to tackle the AA and the rest to go beat up a base was a bad idea, but, now we know.  I believe Jeepinaz has most of our stats written down, but we should probably list them here, this time only, till we vote in the XO, to be sure everything we did together is tracked properly.

Maybe next time we will have 20 +

Thanks all,


1 K, 3 Assist, 1 CV, 1 Base capture

Awesome time today guys!!! Had about 11 JUGS flying w/ us today.

to:
Balsy
Blammo
Bosco123
ChampCar
LeDragon
LilDragn
LilMak
Redleg11
Stodd
Unistrut
Westell

Only on for about 2 1/2 hours this afternoon, but we destroyed some stuff. Took a base, sank a CV & destroyed about 35 enemy a/c. Once we get completely organized I'll get us a website going to keep track of kills etc. The big thing that was made obvious to me is the need for an XO or two. Between the PMs, trying to locate everyone & keep all the JUGS informed, I barely had time to fly. So, if you want to volunteer or nominate anyone for the XO position(s), PM me.

Thanks again for all that made it. To the rest that didn't, post what time/day works for you & we'll work it so we can get even more JUGS in the air.

The other thing I noticed today was how well the P-47 works when used in squad ops. We got in a tangle with the AAs & shot down everyone of them without losing one of our ships, both in the 11 vs 8 & 5 vs 6. (With the exception of me auggering while PMing)

Also, HUGE to the AA's for making our first outing a blast. Good times guys, hope to do it again.

J.U.G.S.:

PM'd Jeep about this and he said go ahead, so I created a Yahoo group for us.  This will give us a place to share files, post a calendar of events, etc.  I am also putting together a list of everyone's email, so when you get a chance, please email it to me (rtippin@bellsouth.net).  I will compile the list, share it everyone and send out the invites for the Yahoo group.

Jeep: Mind if I put my name in for Adjutant to handle this administration stuff?  Unless someone else is intersted.

Jeep. I had said I would like to be XO, but I already run 2 yahoo groups and really don't have time for another.
