The Old Days

[MSgt Van Dyke]

I was just flipping through old pictures and videos and found this. It's been a long time eh @Capt Makowski, @HMCS (FMF) Parker?

[Specter]

They're still boots.

[MSgt Street]

I send this to Capt Koch a few weeks ago

 

 

and in honor of our highest ranking member

 

 

 

[MSgt Van Dyke]

And here I am... Still a Cpl... That's what i get for bailing on you guys for 6 months...

[MSgt Van Dyke]

Oh man... That brings back memories

[Guest]

I wish I had earlier ones, maybe I can get some really old ones from Dennis.

[MSgt Van Dyke]

I think I turned up a bit after that. I remember Trepanier, but he was here a bit before me.

Old old days back in ArmA 2 with the 15th (some of you were there)

 

 

Some of those names should be familiar

[MSgt Van Dyke]

These days its India Company over there, they use Archer as the call-sign. I spent most of my time away from the 3d over in Titan in the 15th.

Here's all my screenshots from the 13th

highlight:

right around this screenshot @Maj Ray gave me a good ass slap and the best power couple in the history of the unit was conceived

And now we go back to Tanoa. Full circle eh?

[HM1 (Ret) (FMF) Pulliam]

I'm not really an "old timer", but the little bit of time I had before the switch from the 13th was pretty cool.

My ITB class, day 1 in the unit. 

 

The last Misfit 3 Training (I think).

Spoiler

 

 

[MSgt Van Dyke]

Remember this one guys? We had to swim for 15 or 20 min. That was the first FTX as the 3d, and we never did it again... 

[MSgt Van Dyke]

From that list, I think 5 of us are still here, or back here.

Was that 8324 or were all of the first FTX long swims? Task Force Charlie's first FTX was. I cut out like 500m of swimming. 8324 was a long way behind us (8325), we definitely got super soggy.

Don't think I have much from the 506th but might have some stuff from the 13th laying around.

 

[Capt (Ret) Bazarnicki]

Oh Hey its a baby @SSgt Hawkins as a LCpl... and now he's a SSgt... and in charge of people.

Dear god the nightmares have begun.

No, Capt Marsden was not in Bandits 8324, it was  @1stLt (Ret) Reeves team.

PV2 McCelvy holy shit.

@SSgt McCelvy

[MSgt Van Dyke]

@SSgt BazarnickiThat was 8320. Eventually, when that got closed, we became 8311. Thats when ol' Mako here took over an MSOT as a Cpl. Remember when you got promoted and we made you read your own promotion warrant @Capt Makowski?

 

Oh and it was more like a kilometer and a half. We got dropped way far out from our actual drop zone.
