SW2012: Joint Strike Battalion (OOC/Signups)

[Hetland 2]

My family's almost all Navy on both sides. My dad and grandmother on my dad's side (Who is deceased) were both Army. And they knew it was a losing battle fighting against so much Navy.

Both grandfathers = Merchant Marines
Dad's older brother= Airforce
Dad's younger brother= Army
Dad= Nothing.

Awwwww yeah.

[Rupudska]

Indeed.

Navy > Mareens > Air Force > Army >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Coast Guard

I always though the Coast Guard were policemen, not military. :/

\They're kinda both, and the only part of the US military where this is true. Would be fairly scary to people with a fear of combining military and police, if it weren't for the fact that the Coast Guard is the least funded and the least capable militarily of all the branches of the US military.

Huh... Well, back here, the Coast Guard is part of the police, not the military. Doesn't really change much, but given the responsibilities the Coast Guard undertakes, I think it reduced the confusion quite a lot.

My dad's from the navy and crazy-proud of it. He kept pressing me to take up a Navy-sponsored polytechnic course so I'd become a naval officer, and I can't even swim right. I eventually got drafted into the Army like most others like my brother. :|

My whole family has been Navy. I plan to follow suit.

Were not that incapable . Also we are both Police and Military. Coast Guard is the only branch of the US military which is also a federal police force.

Belinda might be acquiring a case of gun envy....

Belinda might be acquiring a case of gun envy....

So everyone is at the inspection area right?

I believe so.

[Finorskia]

Belinda might be acquiring a case of gun envy....

Not really The M110 had a rate of fire of 1 to 3 rounds per two minutes.
The Pzh2000 has a rate of fire of ten rounds per 53 seconds.

Yes she has a bigger gun, but Belinda can accurately put more rounds on target in a shorter period of time.

>Implying I don't fully understand the monstrous weakness of the M110A2's gun.
Tho' it isn't just bigger each shell is far more powerful.
Slow and powerful, versus fast and light...er.

No. But Belinda having super calculation for her magic ability, would easily be able to realize that her gun is actually better.

Also the Pzh2000 can apparently put 60 rounds on target in the course of 12 minutes.

ROF isn't everything you know.

Ignoring Fin arguing the logistics of a joke, Rup, do we still have to be in line? Panya needs to get her gun down.

Compared to the other 4 branches, you kinda are, considering you have 0 blue-water vessels.

How long do we need to be in the line?

Ahem

Well that's new. Still, it's not exactly like the Coast Guard is going to go chasing criminals across the Atlantic, I'm pretty sure they're not allowed to.

[Hetland 2]

[Rupudska]

She can get her gun down. I'm waiting on Min to get on. It's up to him when inspection actually ends, and he (Meaning Ludwig) still has to inspect Gwen and all the others that have just arrived in line. And respond to Francesca.

[Finorskia]

Ahem

Well that's new. Still, it's not exactly like the Coast Guard is going to go chasing criminals across the Atlantic, I'm pretty sure they're not allowed to.

No. But we do plenty else. We are the only US service with an icebreaker...ahem make that two icebreakers. We also served in WWII and Vietnam. Heck it was the Treasury class cutters which became the best ASW ships of the war. Also the only CG MoH was issued to a Higgins boat driver who sacrificed himself to save 500 marines. Because that's what we're all about. Risking our lives to save others. I'm pretty sure the Navy doesn't to S&R on the scale that we do.

The CG is awesome, just in non-military ways. And ASW. The Coast Guard is kinda designed to kick ass at ASW.
