AH2.... En Espagnol!!

[fudgums]

I think it's high time that HTC got with the program and offered a spanish version of the game... And no, I don't just mean the sounds--although an HTC generated Spanish soundpack would be appropriate.

AH2 Spanish, as I'm tentatively calling this project, must translate all written text into the language, including all text within the airplane cockpits, in the base, etc...

We cannot ignore the changing needs of the computer-literate marketplace. It is simply offensive and irresponsible to assume that English remains the only language necessary for our lives in the virtual world of AH.

Please make this addition soon, and don't think that this is the end, either. AH Ebonics isn't something you can just pretend doesn't matter.

We're all in this together.

Be vigilant.

CT or AH2 espanol ?????

The majority of the foriegners in this game know english or are learning through this game partially, I learn new words all the time and english is my 3rd language so it helps, look at the finns and even gianlupo who can almost speak a full sentence in english now

Sadly, most of the "foreigners", can type superior English (more often that not their 2nd Language) than most who learn learn English as their primary.

OMG This thread cannot last for long.
For some strange reason I don't think I'll be able to open the clipboard now without hearing the Map song in my head.

It funny how no one can take a joke now 

[SD67]

err pxdig, HT doesn't provide us with the skins, the members of the community do it.
If you wish to have one for the 201 then make one and submit it with any relevant historical data . All skins submitted for use in the Main arenas must be historically accurate.

Why?  Should we also translate all of our street signs into Spanish just for them...?

I say we shouldn't it just time and crap waste for noting

Yes, Yes, I know this is a rant, but darn it I never get to say my peace and this has been bothering me for a while...

It seems every time Mexico is mentioned there is always a series of insults/degrading comments made.  I am wondering why that is.  The 201 Squadron or the "Aztec Eagles" as they were called, fought and died providing air support for OUR guys on the Ground. 

In total, the 201 flew 96 missions, with 785 Offensive sorties, they dropped over 950 1,000lb bombs on the Japanese in the Philippines and Formosa as well as 500, 500lb bombs, and they pumped over 166,000 rounds of ammunition into the enemy.  Of the 31 Mexican pilots, 5 did not return home   No air victories were recorded because the japs had no air cover in that part of the Pacific.  It should be noted that it is against the Mexican constitution to send soldiers to die on foreign battlegrounds, this is the one and only time Mexico has done it, and it was done to support us. 

The Mexican ground support soldiers engaged Japanese soldiers consistantly, inflicting losses and taking enemy prisoners.  At the end of the war, the 201 was credited by the US Army for having killed or taking out of action over 30,000 Japanese troops.  .  That is 30,000 more japs that our guys would have had to deal with if not for these veterans. 

Additionally, all of Mexico went on extreme rationing to give US raw materials and oil, confiscated several German tankers and supply vessels, and basically gave the U.S. all the support it could give.  I dont think I need to tell anyone here how important raw materials were in WWII.

At wars end General Douglas MacArthur said of the 201 “I have watched over its combat activities with growing pride and admiration, and for that reason upon leaving (the Phillipines) I have said goodbye to them with sadness and affection.”

But these Mexican veterans of WWII don’t receive the respect given to all other allied, and even axis countries.  Instead they get “border patrol” jokes.  Heck, AH2, for as many skins as we have wont even provide one for the 201.   

I wonder if the American Soldiers under the wings of the mexican flown P47, would have wished them back in mexico 

And yes I plan to repost this on the mexican jug thread....

and no disrespect to thoese mexicans that flew...

But try this go to mexico and tell them that you don't understand their language and you want them to speak english...see what that gets ya.
