    101st Airborne: 6th June 1944 D-Day




    Chain of Command

    1st Army

    101st Airborne Division

    1st Brigade

    501st Regiment

    3rd Battalion

    Bingo Company


    The bulb in your face explodes into a bright green light, and a scream from the pilot echoes inside of your ears.
    "GO!GO!GO!" You push of the metal door way immediately shook by the cold gust of wind lapping at your 3 day stubble. Your parachute bursts open as a Flak 88 round goes whizzes past you, colliding into a bullet ridden C-47 which expels screaming fiery men, falling to their early death.
    You absorb the horror as you close towards the ground, ready to take on what is thrown at you.


    This roleplay follows the lives of Bingo company, one of five companies in the 3rd Battalion of the 501st Regiment. There are 5 squads, from 1st squad to 5th squad. Therefore I will need 5 squad leaders and normal squad members, including medics, technicians and normal infantry. Other specialities would be good.
    Ranks(in order):
    • (Normal Soldiers)
    • Private
    • Private First Class
    • Specialist
    • Corporal
      (Squad Leaders)
    • Sergeant
    • Staff Sergeant
    • Tech Sergeant
    • Master Sergeant
    • First Sergeant

    Name:Jack Smith
    Age:25
    Rank:Tech Sergeant
    Speciality:Recon
    Squad leader?: Yes
    Weapons: M1C .30 sniper rifle, Beretta Model 1934, SP6 fighting knife.
    Squad?(1-5):1
    Personality:Very calm in high pressure situations, sort of a jokester, but when it comes to his job he is very serious. He is one of those guys that everybody respect's and likes. He looks out for other's before himself and follows the motte, "No Man Left Behind." to the letter.
    Skills: Very fast and agile, accurate with a sniper rifle (well as accurate as you can be with the sniper riles back then), quiet, resourceful, can handle himself in a hand to hand fight but not really a master at them.

    (Let me know if I need to change anything about it)

    Age: 17
    Rank: Private
    Speciality: Infantry
    Squad leader?: No
    Weapons: M1 Garand, Colt M1911, 1 MK3 Grenade, 1 M8 Smoke White
    Squad?(1-5): 3rd
    Personality: Still young and cocky, he got in by luck and good prayers, about a week after his 16th birthday. He has adapted smoking since his joining of the military, and is willing to help out in any way he can. Might freak out in certain situations, but he tries to keep his cool with his smokes.
    Skills: He is decent with a rifle, good reflexes, and relatively light on his feet. He is pretty good at throwing, as he was a High School Football Captain.
