Rosie the Riveter is still putting the planes together, but they'll arrive soon.
Everyone to date is on a crew to be announced tonight. Mark M was found to have flat feet, but the flight doctor will let him on anyway. |
ENDelt, I want you to take this letter for me. You know, just in case something happens.

Rain Man,
Sign me up for the virtual <B>Army</B> Air Corps. Preference is top turret gunner or bombardier (lining up the Coliseum and Invesco), but if otherwise assign me wherever.
...reporting for duty. |

My Dad flew the B17 in WWII. I've got some cool pics that I need to post some day. He took me to a show at the Richards Gabauer (sp??) AFB to watch some of those old planes when I was a kid. He was like a kid in a candy shop. I spent my time trying to load up on all the amenities - popcorn, cotton candy, etc. Man, I really miss my Dad........ |
I wanna kill ... Kill ... KILL!

I always wanted to fly in a B-17! Please put me in the game if there is still room.
Thanks, MikeTheWildcat |
I just feel sorry for the people stuck in my crew, first trip out, crash and burn.
Morphius Stupid luck. |

We'd be sitting around in Kimono's, watching bad Godzilla movies and getting waxed on Sake by now. |
So will I be facilitating death and destruction or directly producing it.
I must begin mental preparation for maximum effectiveness. Of course I will be in charge of torturing ineffective crew dogs. |
At least we know who'll be captain of

I'm getting pre-mission jitters. I just pulled out a picture of my wife and stared at it for a while. That helped a little. I can't get my hands to stop shaking. I'm not sure if it's from fear, nerves, or the memory of the turret gun vibrating in my hands last mission. I hope the mail comes today. It would be nice to hear from home. As each day goes by and the longer I'm over here, it's harder to remember the faces of my friends and family. I hope I hear what our next mission is soon. It's the waiting that's the hardest... |

I know I said 24 hours, but I'm psyched, so we'll do our crew assignments now. If you're interested in joining a crew from this point forward, pm me and I'll put you in line as a replacement for any crew member who meets an untimely end. That shouldn't take long.

Put me on a plane! I can serve my Planet!
Plus, I gots some qualifications! Strengths: I have a pilots licence. So I could probably be a pilot, copilot, or Bombardier. I have some math skills, so I could be a navigator. I have no problem shooting at people that are shooting at me. Weaknesses: I have a touch of claustraphobia. I may not make rational decisions when in cramped quarters.(I may not descriminate about what I'm shooting at.) Hit and miss about problem solving on the fly. Work better with time to reflect on the problem. May have some moral qualms about dropping bombs on civilians. Have been known to fart in elevators. |

Don't you see the qualifier "May" !?
That means that I might do it, but be wracked with guilt afterwards. |

I didn't realize we had contemporaries of Jim Thorpe on the Planet. :hmmm: ;) |
Wrong WW there, Anton. We're talking about the sequel. The Red Baron didn't take along a crew of 9
