Out of curiosity, when was the original damned disbanded?
It never was...officially. After the demise of Air Warrior, about 70+ Damned came over to AH1. So did the MAW's, AK's, LTAR'S and many other mega-squads. If you think there are hordes now, you should have been around on Sunday evenings back in those days. Granted there was a LOT of base taking, but the
FIGHT took priority over winning the war. And fight we did. Guys like DmdDano, Fool, Ren, Coach, TC, Silat (many,many more) were top sticks and their wingman tactics were legendary.
The Damned Hay Day ran between 2002 - 2006. During that time some squaddies passed away
others lost interest, real life obligations sidelined others. The Damned had a very active elist/newsgroup. Unfortunately, the topic of politics (go figure
) embroiled many squad members. The long time CO left and was replaced by another. More in-fighting ensued and slowly but surely the squad fell apart. Perhaps Tequila Chaser can tag on to my memories.
I sure do miss the "good ole days".
