I did find it incredibly amusing that the first thing Vad posts is rank insignias from the US military.

I did find it incredibly amusing that the first thing Vad posts is rank insignias from the US military.

Might I ask why? XD

[Psyren]

It doesn't matter. I posted it as a reference and each division has different logos. You're not going to see the screaming eagle in the Marines and your not going to see an anchor in the army. Leave it at that. No need to start an argument.

I find that absolutely hilarious.lol

Anyways called my cousin he sent me over a photo of a isignia on a jacket of his. He has the one vad posted. But he did say that it was a custom jacket he bought on base in japan to celebrate his rank with some buddies. So yeah not everyone has them cuz its a custom thing for fun.

[Kaden]

Why does everything with you have to be identical to American military equipment?

[Rebekah]

Oh, right.

XD! Totally forgot about that.

[Psyren]

United States Army insignias:

United States Marine Corps: Specialist not listed.

Article on the rank of Specialist: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specialist_(rank)

It mentions that Specialist was a pay grade structured into the Petty Officer pay grade of the Navy, at the very bottom.

[Sigfried Hunin]

There are no specialists in the marines as far as I know. They have like... gunners and shit.

And no. For real. I'm in the US Army. That's where I was for the last 7 months... trainin an junk. I promise! PFC. One away from Specialist. One Chevron one Rocker for me. Thought I was gonna be one for my college and shit, but nah, still a privvy.

Alexander's most poignant post has shown the truth and justice.

PS: I wasn't tryin to start a fight or nothin. Jus' tryin to point somethin out lawl.

[Rebekah]

See what I started by trying to be helpful! T.T

[Rebekah]

Posted. I tried to make it sound better in some places, but in all honesty it's probably going to be a low point for me in the saga. At least I hope so XD

This unit, as you can see on the paper before you, will be the primary squad and the forward fire team in Operation: Sea Storm. In approximately twenty hours you will be transported, via aircraft, to the forward operations command center that has been established behind enemy lines, in the Great Plains that divide our city from South City. In approximately thirty hours, as soon as you have landed and have been equipped, your unit will board your brand-new, ass-kicking Nighthawk and will infiltrate South City by nightfall. Your job is simple: your team will be dropped into hostile enemy territory; your mission is to defeat all hostiles and secure the target location, and hold that location until back up arrives to put up a sustainable perimeter. You are the tip of the spear, ladies and gentleman, and you’ll have Warrant Officer Skleros raining down hell from above to cover your asses. The target location is a small harbor on the mainland side of South City. By securing that location, and by holding it, you will give our main force a location to establish a stronghold within the city limits, and will thus give us the upper hand in taking the city. Rest up and eat well, you’ll be dropping into enemy territory before you know it.”

Considering our mission is going to be stealth like for the first part and once we get discovered is when Bekah will open up hell, I've been thinking of some upgrades for the Nighthawk. This should make Trafford happy so listen up you loveable asshole you. <3

I'm thinking that the turbines will have a semi permeable energy dampening field that will completely mask the sound of the copter engines outside of about 200 feet away. Yet it will allow them to pull in the oxygen required to operate.

I'm also thinking that to compensate for the rotor thumping and moving of air that the chopper is completely surrounded in another semi permeable barrier that will dampen sound from the moving wind, but allow the machine to sustain normal lift. Sort of like a giant bubble.

Another thought is that when needed the barrier can be put to full strength and used to block something, but it'd need to be deactivated extremely fast or it'll choke out the engines and stall them as well as ruin all maintained lift.

Sigfried mentioned feeling something as you pass through the barrier on your way out via rappelling so let's go with that. xD

Assuming all of you, but me are going to be the ground crew I'll have two NPC gunners on each side of the craft, with a forward armament for the chopper itself consisting of a .50 machine gun and maybe rockets?

I'm mostly posting this for reference so when and if you control Bekah and the chopper you know exactly what it can do. It's been upgraded and outfitted with the best engines available and can do almost maneuver if so required that a helicopter can pull off.

I'm also thinking when and if we extract from the mission site I'll lower a large rope with clips on it for each of you to clip onto and I'll just pull you straight up off the ground before moving away.

Sound good? Thoughts or comments?

[Psyren]

I really wanted to be a chopper gunner -_-

[Rebekah]

I really wanted to be a chopper gunner -_-

That's why I said "assuming". I'm sure you still can be. I wouldn't have a problem with it. It might make for limited RP fodder though.

I posted. We all have one hour to ready ourselves and move out. We need to complete this mission on our own accord so I've taken the liberty.

Cheers!

[Psyren]

Yeah I really wanna do it and if you have no problem with and alex doesn't care then im gonna go with that. And I can think of plenty of good fodder ^_^

Edit: Talked to Alex and he said he's cool with it.

[Aero]

Im gonna try and post in the morning.

[Sigfried Hunin]

Anybody in the middle of writin anything or should I go on ahead?

[Rebekah]

I'm not writing. I believe Carter was going to hook up with me next.

[Psyren]

IF it's alright with you guys im gonna have psyen leave the mess hall and head on over to the chopper to do some introspection while he takes a look at the .50's.

[Rebekah]

Not to stroke your enjoyment of large weapons, but as a gunner you'll be using the two vulcan cannons mounted in each bay door. You'll have an NPC gunner of your choosing since you'll be in the copter with me. Name him/her as you wish and just tell me before we start. =D

The 50's and the rockets are for me. xD
