Caught a cool shot (but bad picture) this morning here at Soto Cano AB, Honduras.  Tail FAH-001 (Background), Honduran Air Force One, an Embraer Legacy 600. Donated by Taiwan to Honduras, entered service for Honduras at the end of last year. Foreground: bonus Tucano, Fuerza Aerea Hondurena (Honduran Air Force.)

Is Cavalry just a regular infantry unit that rubs its dick on Civil War and Indian wars pictures of cavalry units or what If so, is the reason they have such a bad reputation that they are even gayer than the 82nd is about STATIC LINE JUMPS INTO EUROPE TO DEFEAT THA NATZEEZ OOMGIMCUMMING

Indoors, on an air-conditioned ops floor. It did not endear them to the rest of the people there.

I was in a Cav Scout unit and nobody had to buy the hat, most people didn't wear them, and they made fun of the people too excited to wear a stetson. They also made us our combat spurs from melted Iraqi Ak brass so that was pretty rad.

I'm thinking the 82nd takes the gold at the gay olympics by a good long way, with the exception being a motobonertard scout having an 82nd combat patch and every second sentence starting with "when I was in the 82nd". We had 2 of those in my last platoon. 82nd wins because of their constant self referral of "spec ops" Being a tanker was the poo poo because all this airborne ranger pathfinder sniper patchwork quilt nonsense was so utterly irrelevant. Best thing was steak and eggs breakfast barbecue after last gunnery night table, you can stick your blue cord or patches or whatever up your rear end, that was the best army thing. Also, Korean tankers gave me a motherfuckin' Korean tanker beret with my name and rank on it in Korean for helping them out, which is the single piece of army poo poo that I have left. Everything else I either gave away to some poor private or threw in the trash because gently caress that army bullshit.

Is that a "Potsdam Giant"? in 8th grade I read about them in a history textbook and became inspired to make a Potsdam Grenadier-inspired Warhams40k Imperial Guard regiment. I did a bunch of doodles in my sketchbook. My mom saw it at some point, and years later, told me she suspected I was gettin high cuz she saw "POT-something" in my sketchbook. After explaining what was actually going on, I kinda wished I had been a pre-teen burnout instead of a gigantic dork.

Thirteen aircraft can be seen in the photograph, which was taken over the tail of a Beaufighter of No. 455 Squadron after delivering its attack.  quote:Oblique aerial photograph taken from a Bristol Beaufighter TF Mark X of No. 455 Squadron RAAF, during a joint attack by the Langham and North Coates Strike Wings on shipping lying at anchor off Marsdiep, between Den Helder and Texel, Holland. Here Beaufighters can be seen attacking German minesweepers with rocket projectiles and cannon fire, as a salvo of RPs from the photographing aircraft is released at the nearest vessel. Three Beaufighters were lost and 17 others were damaged as a result of the intense barrage of anti-aircraft fire from the ships and shore batteries, although 11 vessels were sunk or damaged.  quote:Oblique aerial photograph taken from a Bristol Beaufighter during an attack on shipping lying at anchor off Marsdiep, between Den Helder and Texel, Holland, by the combined North Coates and Langham Strike Wings.

Three Beaufighters failed to return and 17 others were damaged, although 11 vessels were sunk or damaged.  quote:A Bristol Beaufighter sweeps low over the deck of a German 'M' class minesweeper after straddling it with cannon fire, during an attack on an escorted enemy convoy off Texel, Holland, by aircraft of the North Coates Strike Wing.

monkeytennis posted:God they had balls. And massive superiority. If that was a full strike by no less than 5 squadrons it was anywhere from 60 to 90 aircraft less any that were hangar queens that day (squadron sizes in the raf and affiliates typically varied from 12-18 tails, starting at 12 and growing as the war went on). Beaufighter TF Xes had what, quad 20mms in the nose? (Phoneposting so I cant be arsed to look it up) well as 4x500lb bombs. That is a lot of 20mm against unarmoured targets, and a lot of targets for the AA gunners to focus on. If the strike was 60 aircraft that's just a 5% loss rate, not bad at all for a wwii opposed strike. E: whoops, 4 squadrons, so 'just' 48-72 aircraft nominal strenght.

They may have had numbers and weapons but putting your aircraft 50m above some AAA takes some loving balls. Even a .30 Cal can ventilate something pretty good at that range.

Oh, definitely. The loss rate through ops losses (non combat mishaps of all kinds) alone in wwii was 1-2% I think, so just getting airborne time and time again took some balls. Another E, because gently caress it: According to wikipedia RAF Bomber command aircrew suffered a 44,4% death rate in WWII, that was with a tour of duty consisting of 30 sorties over Germany or 60 over France. For comparison that is a higher death rate than WWI infantry officers. Caconym fucked around with this message at 20:58 on Jul 11, 2015 |

One minor quibble...the Commonwealth units who were performing low level maritime strikes like that in Europe would've been assigned to RAF Coastal Command, not Bomber Command.

Yeah, or Fighter Command. North Coates strike wings were even under Second Tactical Air Force from 1943, but I couldn't find actual aircrew loss rates for anyone but Bomber Command. :sh:
