Not sure I understand why the squad is going away.  From reading through the posts a few members still exists .  I don't think it helps to disband.  The 113th Lucky Strikes has been here for 10 years.   We have had our up and down cycles like everyone.  We changed CO's a few times along the way.   There are times when it was down to just two active members.  We only fly as a squad once a week and understand that real life comes first.  That said  we are building up and welcome all to come fly with the 113th, we only fly as Knights in the late war arena, we fly all the P38's in fighter or attack mode, we welcome any and everyone to come wing up for a flight or two, perhaps an hour or evening of fun.   Vox 113, Saturday evening 7:00PM EST.  
im rarely online, our XO is inactive, another player is now going into A/C engineering for college, two others dont make it online, another is having monetary issues and dealing with real life, two others play whenever they can but also do not play actively, the rest of the list are inactive/old accounts.

and melvin doesnt get it that the 20th is gone but we're trying to reserve the name for a later date months or years down the road to bring it back. all our members agree that the squad's done. i know of at least one player from the actives now trying the solo road. im figuring out what to do myself.

I was under the impression that a few of you would be flying in 20th FG uniform. This lead me to believe that you were suffering from nothing more than retention issues.

I see now that the 20th FG has been stricken from the AH Squad roster. This is the sign of disbanding.

Good luck in future endeavors, I'm sure you'll be back at strength some day.

I'm letting the cat out of the bag here...... simply because this thread is about squads.

I've never had an actual interest in them myself...mostly because I can never be here at scheduled times...but..I have been hanging on to a most killer squad name since I got here years ago..and I always wanted to register it...but never bothered looking into how to do so.

so.....for anyone forming a new squad......I give you the coolest.....most hip-o-matic squad name ever to grace the skies.....


   433rd BuzKill

it just seems like a natural..of course choose whatever number you want..but buzkill works so well...on so many levels.

that....and yesterday I saw someone here who called himself that....and it pissed me off.  ;)
like the name  :aok

Sad news, <S> LocoBusters, hope to see you back stronger than ever really soon.

We always appreciated your professional escorting when you flew as "little friends" for the DHBG.

Been a pleasure flying with the 20th, nearly everything I've learned is thanks to you and those listed from the LocoBusters roster brutha. Don't fold the 20th, grow it and fly . . the 20th is a part of us all :airplane:
