Original Callsigns...
« on: January 23, 2011, 10:27:42 PM »
Before I picked my callsign I checked around to make sure nobody was using it. What do you guys think, I mean we have about 4 or 5 Hawks of various spelling, even 1 or 2 Skuzz-Meister near homonyms, and many more. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so that other "Weasel" wanna-be must want to grow up just like me some day.  :neener:  Teasing aside I would want a callsign that means something to me personally. If yours is unique why did you pick it?

I started as Ghost51.  Couldn't come up with a good unique name so I went with "Ghost" because I thought I'd attack people so fast that they would think a ghost killed them, and "51" because I was a brainwashed teen who had been told the P-51 was the "best" fighter of WW2.

Stuck with Ghost for a few tours, added squad number to it, etc.



Banshee7 came about when I had become considered one of the most hated squeakers in the game.  Got caught in the wrong crowd and stuff.  "Banshee" came from three things--1.)  I used to ride a friends Yamaha Banshee all the time.  2.)  The P-51B named "Beantown Banshee"  3.)  It sounded cool.  The "7" came along because of the overused 'lucky #7"
Tours 86 - 296

I think I'm the only Fugitive. I picked it after a very short break. I had been MDJOE for years both here and in AWIII. I was part of the 444th Air Mafia for all of those years as well. In the "mob" we had a saying, "There is only one way out of the Mafia, in a pine box!" So when I left the Mafia, I became the "Fugitive"   :D

HiTech said the object of the game was to piss the other guy off.
What could be more annoying than being shot down by a blanket with sleeves?  :D

 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."
