One of the elements of the defense is the Second Allied Tactical Air Force, responsible for the defense of Northern Germany, from its now wartime HQ in The Netherlands commanding the RAF Second Tactical Air Force, Royal Netherlands Air Force, Belgian Air Force, Luftwaffe Command North, and a USAF Tactical Fighter Squadron.

Name:Arnold Rimmer

Rank: Captian

Age: 28

Nationality: American, Wyoming

Aircraft: F-100 Super Sabre

Description:
Arnold joined the air force at a very early age. Incredibly patriotic. He is a above average pilot, not great, but damned good. He is a pilot through and through. Feeling more at home in the air than anywhere else. He loves women, cigars, a good scotch and his country. Having proved himself time and again, he rose to rank very quickly. However, his problem with authority has prevented him from rising past the rank of Captain.

Pretty sure the USAF stopped having enlisted pilots in 1942.

So then there was no Air Force after 1942?

No, after that all pilots were commissioned officers.

I'll get a character up tomorrow (GMT), as I'm a bit too tired right now! But I'll probably play an RAF pilot, flying a Hunter, depending on what I can find that fits the time period. If it's up to 1956, I'm presuming we can have anything that's in service up to that point?

Yeah, there were squadrons flying the F-86 variants in 1956. Also, if anyone didn't know, 2 ATAF was British led, the Commander of 2TAF(RAF Germany) was its commander. I might be a German.

I just found the Saab Lansen, and it's something I'd like to fly, but I realize there's no Swedes in the opening brief, d'oh!

Name: John Buchanon
Rank: Flight Lieutenant
Age: 33
Nationality: English
Aircraft: Hawker Hunter
Description:
Having fought late in the Second World War, John has seen a lot of action. He is now trying to twist his experience and understanding to fit the rapidly changing world post-war. With everything he saw during the war, he's saddened by the fact that more violence is to follow, and that peace was so fleeting.
Nonetheless, with a family back in the UK to look out for, he has ground down his doubts and pushed himself back into action once more, showing a strong sense of pride and professionalism in his duty.

Appearance wise, he is quite handsome and has a rogueish air. Like many men of the time, he has a pencil-thin 'Errol Flyn' moustache, and short, slicked back black hair. Otherwise, he has a fairly lanky frame with strong hands, and wide shoulders.

To explain an eclectic squad without including a ton of NPCs with us I had the idea that perhaps we were all stationed in the same area and got taken off guard with most squadrons decimated or scattered with the remainders reformed on the fly with what was left.

Name: Douglass Winters
Rank: Captain OF-3
Age: 29
Nationality: Texas American
Aircraft: F-100
Description: A true American from the great state of Texas. Joined the United States Air Force Academy straight out of high school to fight the commies just like his father fought the god forsaken Germans. Got a degree in Aeronautical Science alongside his work at the academy graduating with honors. Spending about two years patrolling the California coastline watching over those damn hippy liberals he at last was rotated out to Korea where he spent the two greatest years of his life blowing Ivan and his (RACIST EXPLETIVE DELETED) buddies out of the sky like the godless heathens they are. Of course all good things must come to an end and so the war sadly ended without him getting to bomb Pyongyang itself. He has since been rotated all the way over to Europe as an experienced pilot to aid in the training of the new formed German Air Force.
