"2nd Lieutenant - Bernie "skernsk" Failing – 17 missions"

What kind of lowly squad would let this degenerate in their ranks?!  :p



I really don't know how he got voted in. I believe we had to count the hanging chads. Which was enough for him to get in. :aok


Hey Daddog, Can we have a Recall??? ;)

Skersk is a perfect example of why you check references

:D

It does seem amazing that almost 6 years ago a guy I worked with, Al 'Docdog' Arline convinced a young Leutenant to sign up for a relatively new online game called Warbirds.  The names that have passed by over the years, Hudman, Woodog, Booker, Harppa, B-Town and all the others-it seems like yesterday we were all flying together.

Kinda brings a tear to your eye, all the changes over the years.  I know guys with older squadrons know the feelings of watching squaddies come and go.  It has been a lot of fun over the years for me.  I have been active and non active but always considered myself a Mongrel.  I do know that I will be a Mongrel til the day the squad ends or until we all quit flying.

Congrats fellas.  Without a doubt, the 332 is a fine bunch of people and a great squad.  These guys introduced me to flight sims in WB's.  Man I remember those first squad missions on Sunday in the HA.  Thos were so much fun.  

thx DD, Ghosth, and all the other mongrels.

Oh yeah, I'm sorry about that.  When you asked, I thought you were considering him for the position of squad fluffer.  Had I known you actually wanted him to fly your airplanes my recommendation would have been different.  :D

Hey!  Quit picking on Skernsk!  He is my wingman and fellow Dog!

He is a great addition to the Dogs and his humor is welcomed.

Go Brother Skernsk!!

I have met the man so I can sympathize.

I think the secret to our longevity as a squad is that we enjoy each other's company online. Every Friday night it's a regular party, with at least 15 of us on. It's a rare squad night where we don't have at least 15. Sometimes we're up to 20 online at a time. At the 2002 Con, we had the largest squad representation of 9 mongrels. Well, ten if you count Fluffy.

Daddog runs a pretty straight-laced ship, so myself and skernsk occasionally find ourselves in the dog house, but secretly I think the guys enjoy my singing and skernsk's risque' humor.

I don't think I could name one person in the squad who wouldn't give you the shirt off their back. We have a history of taking care of each other by handing down hardware when we upgrade. Recently, when one guy's PC died, the rest of the squad were ready with donations of parts and money to help that person out. You don't see that kind of commit in every squad.

This is a special group of guys, indeed. I am proud to have them as friends and squadmates.

OK OK, Skernsk is a good guy...keep that Swagger guy off of me!  Definitely one of the 'tards that I miss flying with.  Him and Argyll.  Nothing funnier than a couple of Canucks swapping insults back and forth over vox.  :D

Congrats, Mongrels. I'm sure the Wildcards could learn something from your example. WTG!

BTW Laz sunking is right.

Its not daddog you have to worry about.

I'm the sharp end of the stick.

We have this "good cop, bad cop" thing down pat.  :)

But if it gets really bad daddog threatens to quit. We all then go crawling into our holes & tend to be really good fora while.

:)

Ammo good to see you bro, how goes it?
