Trukk,

I really appreciated the HARM mission last week in AvA.  I hope to see more of them.  To anyone considering a bomber squadron, I would recommend 359th.   After one mission I am convinced that these fellas have what it takes to put on one great show.  :O

I have been a player for a number of years and consider bombing to be one of my stregnths.  Flying with these guys, was like finding long lost brothers.:aok

BTW, just got the news B-25 will be added.  It's time to start practicing  :rofl

Remember, if you can't beat em join em:D

Speaking of 12 o'clock High, great movie.  :aok

Real life mission recording of gunner and pilot chatter during battle was every bit of what was depicted in that film.  Unfortunately, I lost the audio file.:confused:

If anyone thinks they have that audio file, please point me to where I can get it again.  It was a B-17 mission I believe.  The gunner's comments were about ".... bogie .... 3 o'clock ......... gotcha ....... bas#%$@.......... ..... come on get out of there guys!!!!....... I see a chute...."

It was an awesome recording I have to find this again please help if you know where I can look.:O

Hey Guys

Didnt realize that you have a new division.

Bunch of good guys here, for anyone looking for a tight squad. Harm missions are a blast. I think I'll be around this weekend.



Cheers guys
Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

Not really a new division, just wanted to pick a historical bomber squadron since that is really what we are focusing on. :)
