Vietnam

[pandification]

I woke up early enough to work on my character a bit. Yay me.


I have this ultimate desire to use Jon Bernthal as my character's face.


I have never used a "famous person" as my character.. BUT IT FITS SO MUCH.


Especially since I saw the movie Fury.


EDIT:


I just mostly-finished my character.


Now I have to be gone all day.


Please @ me if there is anything important going on!

@pandification I'm thinking of making your character a Staff Sergeant. He'll be the guy scuffing up the Joe's the most. That cool with you? If you're not up for it, you could just be a senior specialist haha.

 

[pandification]

Okay, that works for me. I'm good with that! Sounds fun!

All I hear is Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in my head.


"If you ladies leave my island, if you survive recruit training, you will be a weapon. You will be a minister of death praying for war. But until that day you are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth. You are not even human fucking beings. You are nothing but unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian shit! Because I am hard, you will not like me. But the more you hate me, the more you will learn. I am hard but I am fair. There is no racial bigotry here. I do not look down on I'm uncultured, kikes, wops or greasers. Here you are all equally worthless. And my orders are to weed out all non-hackers who do not pack the gear to serve in my beloved Corps. Do you maggots understand that?"

Lol! I freakin loved that movie with a passion! I'm sure Kai will implement a little of that when the new guys come. @Kai Ghoul I noticed you made my character a M60 gunner, I'm sure she would approve! Aren't those heavy tho?

 

[PicaPirate]

Not too heavy compared to a Browning M1 or M2 or such. Can carry with two arms with reasonable ease.

It sucks to suck! The only female Joe's gonna have to pull her weight if she wants to survive with the big boys. And if you noticed; I didn't give you an AG, unfortunately; Sfc Rico is a bit of a dick. But this will make you stronger! You'll have the toughest female in Vietnam when this is through hahaha.


 
It's not the weapon itself that's heavy; it's the 800+ rounds you will be carrying with it.

I can make another female if needed.

Make sure everyone's trackin' the organizations tab. Y'all's jobs in the platoon are posted there. FWI; RTO also is the one who calls for fire missions and medivac's.


I decided to implement a mortar team in the platoon for extra coverage. The mortar tube will be carried on the rucks, and the AG will carry the rounds. Everyone on the mortar squad will travel with the weapons squad until they get a vantage point where they can mortar the possible enemy positions advancing on weapons squad during enemy contact. @PlaguedWithInsanity will lead the mortar squad. If that's cool with you?


 

Heehee I won't :3

Sure. I can do that. My character can lead the mortar squad.


Flamer? What do you mean by flamer?

"Flamer"


Oh lordy, here come the zippo raids.

[PicaPirate]

He means flamethrower troops which did "zippo raids", which was checking a village for any Charlie's, then razing the place down.


Can't find em? Burn the whole thing down!

Hahahahaha hoooooo!

 

[Sister]

*is picturing fight to the death between picapirate and insanity's character for flamethrower*

 

[PicaPirate]

Oh nah, he'll be the one interrogating the Vietnamese civilians threatening their children and such if they don't give the info. Or just being a shithead to anyone who isn't his comrade or superior.

 

[Sister]

Guess he'll be the designated brute? Lmao, I can see a need for a brute on the team!

 

[PicaPirate]

That works ^^

 

[Trunk Monkey]

I'll just make him a designated search man of the weapons squad. Forgot what they are called, but the weapons squad usually has a designated two man search team that searches the body's of captured enemy; or suspected people who may be enemy. It will come to me in about 15 minutes... Just watch.

 

[spacepossum]

Guess he'll be the designated brute? Lmao, I can see a need for a brute on the team!

Heheh, actually, seeing that some people were randomly chosen for this job, I was thinking that maybe I would make someone more reserved? I dunno.

[amended]

Hey, with me being a RTO, can I just try my best to say what I would assume Military RTOs would say or should I try to look up actual transcripts and go off of those?

 

[Trunk Monkey]

Oh; that's simple. You would get a callsign, and it would go something like this:


" Firehog; this is Marauder Joker, fire mission as follows. "


Then you would give a made up 8 digit grid; probably something like 12345678 or just say:


Joker sent the fire mission details; allowing Firehog to receive and throw down hell.


Make sure you clarify what kind of hell you wanna rain on the enemy: HE or Willy Pete is probably your main options.
