[99th_Obsidian]

My avatar is a picture of my uncle from his 1945 Tuskegee graduation class. While he never saw action I've been inspired to fly WWII sims ever since I learned he was a Tuskegee Airmen. One of the first Airmen squads was the 99th.

I studied geology @ U of Washington in Seattle. Obsidian is a volcanic rock that can form when basaltic lava is erupted into the air. It cools so quickly it takes on a glass like form. Early man discovered that it could be chipped and formed to make very sharp spear and arrow heads.

So 99th in homage to my late uncle and my online squadron and Obsidian, the deadly black arrowhead.

[Burtonboy05]

I'm an Australian of Croatian decent. My grandpa escaped the post WWII communist Yugoslavia regime on a fishing vessel through to Italy with around 30 others all of who eventually settled in Australia in the mid 50’s. Another boat was intercepted containing family and friends who were never heard from again all presumed executed. So my existence (and that of my father) is rather lucky as is the case with many of us no doubt. My surname (Mislov) is pretty uncommon globally as far as I can tell, anyway Aussies being Aussies they always shorten ones name and add a's, e's, or o’s for a nick name. I've always been Miz, Mizza, and very occasionally Mizwa. (Mizwa being my 360 gamer tag). Interestingly playing against Americans in online shooters they often think it’s of a Muslim decent and I’ve been called a terrorist on a number of occasions in a lobby lol. However a quick f*ck you mate in a heavy Aussie accent soon sets them strait. Pretty sad really but such is the plight of the unintelligent.

Outside of video games I have a passion for most board riding sports (surfing, skating, wake boarding etc) however it’s snowboarding that is the biggest of all my passions (outside of wife and young children of course lol) and my dream past time. I only ride and wear Burton equipment and my mates quickly picked up on it and started taking the pi$$. While having a refreshing brew post a hard days riding one of them commented here comes Burtonboy with the beers or is your round Burtonboy and it's kind of stuck mainly on snow trips or when hanging with that group of freinds. That too is usually followed with a quick F* you also, but all in good fun! So I use that one also in this forum at least and 5 is my lucky number.

[hoghead]

Nice topic for a newbie. My username is: ‘hoghead’. A few of you might know what a 'hoghead' is/was but I doubt most will know. A hoghead is a railroad Locomotive Engineer - the guy that runs or 'drives' freight trains (drive is used in the UK but never in US or Canada - we run or operate trains). Some think it's a derisive term for an unskilled Engineer but that is most probably not correct - it is just slang for an Engineer. End of train, Hoghead aka Richard

[Luftwaffe_Rommel]

First of all interesting thread. I had always wondered myself what was the story behind usernames; were they meant to be or just pure ramble.

Well Luftwaffe_Rommel got it from two things. First after playing secret weapons over Normandy, a great game by the way. I kind of like the word Luftwaffe instead of air force. second, Rommel well since I like tanks and planes and I had already chosen something to do with planes, the next thing that came to mind were Patton and Rommel. Since Patton was the grouchy one I chose Rommel plus it sounded better in my head, Luftwaffe_Patton nah, Luftwaffe_Rommel and there you go.

[Colonel Zick]

Colonel Zick is the twisted mind of another profiled pilot in BoP. He crawled out form his asylum when there was a need for a pilot representing the Dark Legions to down and anihilate cowards with reargunners and lack of fighterskills in dogfights and teambattles. The colonel despises that kind of cheesy shit.
Colonel because he is a vet. Zick because he is mentaly unstable and flies under the influence of various substances.
