VMF-251: 2 Years and Counting
« on: November 13, 2008, 11:39:52 PM »
Ok, so nowhere near as impressive as the 332nd's run and many of the others, but today VMF-251 marks its 2nd anniversary.

Of the three founders I'm the only one remaining, but of what I consider the Original Roster:

Saxman - Nov 13, 2006 - Active
ScrapMtl - Nov 13, 2006 - Retired
xREAPERx - Nov 16, 2006 - Inactive
Herder - Dec 10, 2006 - Active
CpMorgan - Dec 17, 2006 - Active
MEF4UD - Dec 31, 2006 - Active

That's four of the original six still in the game, and we now have 14 in active status with 11 others who have spent time with our pretty pirate lady proudly displayed on their flight jackets.

 :salute guys. It's been an honor flying with you all, and it will continue to be an honor.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Way to go guys.  :salute
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
