Last night I seen, in the text buffer, one of the most incredible messages I ever seen.
Being heavily attacked at A32, JG2 was there defending it. It was BigJoe, Doc, Ygsmilo, and myself. III/JG2 pilot Ash (Young) was also there.
Apparently young Ash and Doc ran into some trouble in the form of overwhelming odds as thy flew out together to meet the enemy.
In the text buffer from young Ash, "Run Doc, I'll be the bait." It was one of the most incredible things I have ever read in the buffer.
I have no idea how old young Ash is, but I believe in his teens. An age where personal accomplishments are important and the concern for a fellow squad member might not be on the foremost of thought. Not this young man. He was ready to sacrifice so another could escape.
It was just really wonderful to see this type of action from a younger generation AH member.
Salute young Ash. You are certainly following the footsteps of another remarkable Ash.
