A Pilot Story (OT - The Adventures of Wedge Antilles)

True, very true...and if they had let Wedge be shirtless, then I'd have no complaints what so ever.

 

Clapping Fetus.

 

I agree with you, Phoenix.

 

Huzzah! To the top!

You too, huh?

 

My 750th post, baby! Hoo-rah! (Don't ask ; It's a military thing)

 

Ooh- haven't seen that movie in a long time...

Matrix Reloaded looks good too.

 

I just saw X2 earlier. Funniest line:

[color=006699]Hoo-rah - US Marine Corps' long time battle cry/rally cry/'go team' cry that was later picked up by the US Navy Seals - The US Air Force and the US Army use a veriation of it. USAF Fighter Jocks tend to use Yee Ha after as successful strike or straffing run - or when they are just having fun flying - Yee Ha is another one used in the Air Force - not sure what the Army uses.

Ye-haa also good for clearing fences on horseback.

 

Saddam is FUBAR. Semper Fi, Wedge!

EDIT: Correct me if I'm wrong, Wedge, but aren't "Oo-rah" and "Hoo-ah" also used?

Also, because Wedge is a soldier (pilots count as soldiers, right?), he just earned my respect and a spot in my watched user list.

 

I say "Hoo-rah" whenever I do somethid cool in a multiplayer game. It annoys the crap out of the other players. It's oddly satisfying to say "Hoo-rah". Probably out of instinct, I suppose.

Hi Antilles2001,

Thank you .

Yes, Oo-rah and Hoo-ah are also used, again mainly by the Marine Corps. My father was a Marine 1st Lt. during the Korean Conflict and my son wants to go to Annapolis and become a Marine Officer.

Actually, if the pilot is Air Force, he/she is refered to as an Airman just like everyone else int the Air Force, no matter what the rank, while soldier is reserved for people in the Army including Army pilots, Sailor in the Navy including pilots and Marine in, where else , the Corps including pilots.

What do you call a 6.9? (PM me if you want to know the punchline ; It's a dirty joke)

 

up

 

So... bored...

 

No lifesigns detected...

 

nope, quiet as a tomb... you know what, right now... i'd kill for a post... just kidding, or am i...

 

[color=006699]Ok, a post:

Once upon a time there were these four pilots who lived alone together in a cozy thatched cottage in the woods of Corellia. One morning when thay sat down to breakfast, the blonde pilot with his dazzling blue eyes said, "Yuck, my MREs are too cold." The tall blonde pilot said, "Mine are too cold." The two dark haired pilots said in unison as they threw their bowls across the room, "Ours aren't even cooked."

So the shorter of the two blondes stood, giving the two younger pilots a shake of his head at their actions, "Let's go get in some flight time," he said, "We will leave this food here for when we get back." He nodded as the other blonde retrieved the thrown food, placed it back in their respective bowls and placing them back onto the table.

The pilots left their house, climbed into their X-Wings parked outside and put air between them and the ground.

Is that enough post for you?

Praise the Lord, a remotely story-like post! Hoo-rah!

 

I was begining to think I'd never see another one like those on this thread

 

Don't lose faith. [/hypocrite]

 

Just more post until...
