Looking for my old buddies of The 332 Viking squad
« on: August 29, 2008, 05:41:29 PM »
Hi I am Malm,

I flew some missions with The old 332 Viking squad.

I would be overwhelm with joy if some of you would get in contact with me since you gents meant so much to me. Your squad and our friendship meant alot to me back then - it still does. Something I'll never forget - a friendship that I will remember to the day I die.

I am so sad that I never took part of the oppunity to add some faces along with your callsigns on your frequent gatherings in England and Norway. Your faces are all blur to me now - all I remember is how good I felt being in your wing bombing the hell out of our enemies and how well we could form a formation under GA's and SELECTOR´s command. We did good didn't we :salute

I will open a new account - ofcause flying The Allied side. Don't yell'nshoot me to much - I'll guess I have much to learn....


-


Yours Sincerely
Malm

Hey Malm, how are you doing!

A few of us are still around scattered about. Personally, I'm not active right now, but I hope to get back in the game sometime soon.

The 332nd vikings was a most excellent bunch. I really enjoyed it and the game was not the same for me after we scattered. I still miss it. If you want some nostalgia, here's my old AAR of TOD (today called FSO) website:

Heya Malm!!

Way freakin' good to see you again bro!

I'm flying with the 71st RAF; was with the Vikings years ago.  Great fun back then!  Lots of good squads on the Knight's side, but the 71st fits me pretty well.  No pressure, lots of squad events, great leadership without being overbearing.  Let me know if you want to come fly with us~!

Good to hear from you gents :)

Yes 332nd vikings was a most excellent bunch. Good moral, with great leadership and a band of brothers both virtually as in real life.

As I recall the upgrade of The game engine was the beginning of the end. Some of us struggled to keep up with the new hardware standard. Others just gave up. I think I manage to fly another six months but in and out of active roster - then I got offline to try something different.
Since then I've been a active member of 21vb Viking squadron playing OFP and ArmA.

I was hoping to find at least a few of you organized in a new squadron - keeping the spirit of 332nd vikings aloft. Guess not but what to expect after six years.

Maybe we will meet on line again :)

Yours sincerely
Malm
