Introduction:
Since I have created the Squadron in the game, I figured I might as well put my shingle out here and try to get the 475th up and running.
First off, my callsign is Pudgy after Tommy McGuire's five P-38s. I'm 38 years old and live in Ohio. I'm married with three (soon to be 4) kids and work as a Project Manager.
Why the 475th: I created the 475th for my own gratification because it is my favorite group, and it gives me an excuse to get better in the Lightnings. I've been reading up on the squadron and group histories and the 475th has a great and colorful history that should always be remembered here and anywhere. They have some great skins in game so that was also a good fit for me.
I want to keep a strong Pacific Theater in general and specifically 5th Air Force theme in the squadron. We will focus on the P-38 of coarse, but I enjoy flying all of the 5th Air Force birds.
Squad Objectives:
The immediate objective of the 475th is to get a few core members who can fly in an element and flight so we can get used to working together. The real 475th focused on teamwork and that is what made them very successful, that's what I want out of squad members here as well. Once we have a few members I would be glad to lead group the into the FSO arena.
If you feel that you would fit in and be of a like mind regarding squadron theme and operations then I'd be glad to have you.
Contact Info:
I've just today created a webpage to support the squadron. I'm working on adding things as we speak.
