Community Request - Old Squad Films - JG3-Udet
« on: June 23, 2020, 06:03:19 PM »
Hi AH Community,

Been awhile, "Close to 12-14 years or so since I last upped."  Been great getting back into the virtual air again and having deja'vu every other second as everything old is new again lol, and somethings are just plain new to me "Tiger II GV! - Icons for dar dots!" among other things.

I see some new names and familiar names still with us, and I also see we have lost a few of our friends too.  With great solemness I give a heartfelt <<~S~>> to our friends and respected adversaries who may be gone, but yet still with us.

I have a request if it's even possible, "Again so much has changed so I'm still getting up to speed again". 

I was a member of JG3-Udet under C.O. Twodogs5 (TD), from about late 2005 to about 2008/9ish if my memory serves right. 

To all my squad-mates that I knew and flew with, and to the ones I didn't have the pleasure of flying with but were past squad members <<S>>.

If there are any old films around from that time period of our squad ops for JG3 or just the guys messing around, or even from some of our fighter escort missions with the Dickweed HBG <<S>> DWHBG.  I sure would appreciate being able to see those times again.

I doubt if any films have survived that long, as I'm sure data has been shuffled/lost over such a long period of time, "I know I lost mine", but I thought I would ask here anyways. 

If nothing else it's just great say hello again.

<<S>>

Sincerely,
ReZDog

Good to hear that friend  :salute  I guess I did'nt realize how much time had passed.  I was a kid really when I joined AH, and then my squad.  "I think TD bent the squad rules for me as I don't think I was quite 18 yet lol, perks of being the C.O.". Flying with guys in their 40s and 50s.


Cheers.

 :salute

I remember wayyyy back flying when I was in my 40s and thinking I was old. Then I ran into one of our folks that was in his 90s.

Lots of folks love aircraft... even more when you can shoot at others.  :D

I hear you shuffler, I was lucky to be a kid who happened have had the fortune in my life to have older friends, and hang out with (get corrupted by) all you gentleman lol just kidding.  It was a pleasure sharing the good times back in the day just listing in on the stories.  I think in my old squad we had just as good a time on busted ops as the ones that were successful lol, laughing our tails off over the vox channel.

 :salute Steely07, it was a good moral boost for me to see the DHBG flying the other day.  I was talking to another old friend, saying how much I missed JG-3 Fighter Escort Missions of the DHBG.  You guys are and have always been class <<S>> Sir, as well as all the AH vets and those that followed who are still keeping on, dropping those eggs, firing them golden bb's, and peppering with lead hah.
