Same. 

It was a true privledge to have been a part of it.  When wearing the LTAR patch, there were times I would show up at a base under attack by myself, and I'd get comments on range to the effect that everything was under control since LTAR had arrived.  Their reputation was hard earned and well deserved.

I am very sorry to see it come to this.

Since I haven't seen GHI on the boards for a while, I'm going to steal his picture. 

"GUNS UP!"   :salute



OMG Target, that brought back a flood of memories!!  There was a day when the nme's realized LTAR was protecting such and such base they would concede and move on  :lol

Sorry to hear this. They've been a long time fixture in the MA. Best of luck with the new squad.

Same here.  VERY sorry.  Good luck with your future plans.

could you and the muppets HIJACK a different thread. LTAR is one of the more respected squads. you want to talk about low class both the few and the muppets have shown it here in this thread

I agree with you whole-heartedly, Kilz.  My post has been misinterpreted.  I was simply bemoaning the disappearance of prominent squads from the game.  In the case of The Few there was some supporting evidence at my fingertips of the motivation for their disappearance so I hastily posted it not considering its inflammatory nature.  Also in my haste I chose my words poorly and mentioned the word “league” which could be misinterpreted.  My intention was to not insult the LTARS or the BK’s by comparing them to The Few who, while they were rising to equal prominence before their decline, did not attain to the heights of these other two squads except in their own mind - that was my point.  It all came out wrong and it may still be coming out wrong, if it is, I apologize.  

I will perpetuate this no further.  I am sorry for the misunderstanding.  

If I may be so bold as to speak for all of the Muppets, we salute the LTAR’s and cherish their contribution and memories of great fights.  From the Muppets to the LTAR’s…

Sad to see the name go. Remember the days like Target posted, before the days of the Wirb where it took skill to hit something.

The whines and accusations of the c-word from their prowess in Ostwinds and manned-ack were epic as well.   They were truly, absolutely and unequivocally the best at what they did.
