[OOC] Called Up - A WWII-esque Military RP (Alternate Universe)

[Gunther]

I'm here. Monday - Wednesday is always a difficult time for me to read the forum at all let alone make a post. I hope to be able to catch up this evening.

[HeySeuss]

No problemo. I'm giving today for a roll call, but then we're going to suffer some more casualties and I'll make sure the interest check does some recruitment for replacements.

[guyvolk]

I'm finally ready to enlist if you'll have me!

[Gunther]

The platoon looked like this on paper, but showed up for work at about 60% strength and we're probably down to about 33% strength after first contact with the enemy.

[HeySeuss]

So yeah, we're recruiting. ;)

[HeySeuss]

The recruitment for new players is now posted. ;)

[Rock Killjoy]

Don't go killing me off now lol,I'm still here and waiting.

[Maxwell57]

You guys have no idea how hard it was to find a good female picture that wasn't in a skirt or a bathing suit ._.

Ha, I do!
Had the same problem.

[Rock Killjoy]

It's a real pain in the rear,that or pin ups.

[HeySeuss]

The new characters will be part of the same company and are forced to fall back from their positions. So Krebs will probably organize whom he finds there with him into something he can use in the confusion.

I read through the posts in the IC. Any ideas on where they are retreating to? Is there a base nearby?

My character is a doctor, so I learned last night that she would be a good 15km behind the front at a battalion aid station, but I'm not sure if you even have one considering this was just a "look around to see if they are there" operation.

Mostly, I just need a good place to come in.

She might be a doctor in civilian practice but perhaps still a medic as far as the PAF is concerned; especially if she was a medic when she was conscripted. In which case, she'd be with an infantry unit and closer to the actual line. It'd be more convenient if she started out as a medic in an infantry unit, no matter what subsequent medical training, and not be an active duty type. Then the case could be made that the military never shifted her to a new role that reflected her qualifications and there she was, an overqualified field medic.

Go with this, Aidilein. It's up to you but she may be a bit disgruntled about her position.

All right. :)

[HeySeuss]

Cool stuff. Whose posting next?

[Gunther]

I'll take a crack at it this evening. I'll put up the rest of the company if not elements of the battalion. Pulling everyone back.

[Aidilein]

Oops, sorry, are we like waiting for turns?
I just posted without really asking if I can atm...
