Seriously here... who would want a hand between their cheeks anyways?

LOL. That's funny Johann (its cool to call each other by first names).  Hand between their cheeks.  Muppets.  I get it.  I get it.

Squadrons like the Muppets, 80th and BKs, etc. are very necessary for AH. They embody the idealism of fighterdom excellence established by Boelke in WWI to "Top Gun" in the 80s and everything in between. They create and perpetuate icons of popular community culture within our game that exemplifies the joys and chivalry associated with fighterdom. It reads a lot like the "Iliad" by Homer, where there are the normal "troops" then there's the Kings and Heroes that are on a completely different level that others aspire to in combat.

In AH these icons serve a very crucial purpose of instilling in the community a sense of the purity and sanctity of fighterdom for its own sake. Without examples and highly "publicized" figures that represent this ideal there would be nothing to "point the way". Inevitably, without these icons, AH would devolve into a bland game of "monopoly" where the perceived "goal" of geographic domination serves as the means to its own end. Fighter purists mollify that tendency of incoming and developing players to help create an environment where fightering excellence is held in higher esteem and becomes a goal unto itself not bound by the contextual constraints of map geography and country base counts.

Yeah.  That and...

Muppets are good for you because they're made of Whole Wheat.

The Army of Muppets is just the trendiest example of the whole Fighterdom Excellence mentality currently. 3-5 years ago it was the Blue Knights, more recently the folks of the 80th coalesced to become another great example. One squadron I am noticing lately that's really getting into the Fighterdom Excellence thing is Pigs on a Wing, they're really doing some great tactical fighter runs and have a lot of individual skill in their ranks. These types of squadrons act as an antithesis to the other types of squadrons, which I shall not name for "political reasons", that advocate taking "real-estate" at all costs even if it means sucking the MA dry of the collective "fun-factor". So, it's very important to the community for Fighterdom Excellence idealism to persist and thrive on the individual and squadron level, the Muppets just being a perfect example of this among several other candidates similarly qualified.
