S~ All,
As the time draws near for the
Sicily "Operation Husky" Campaign to start ... I want to welcome you all to what I hope will be a fun campaign !! :) This forum thread will be where I'm going to be posting the individual mission maps and briefings. I hope to have the new briefing for the next mission posted on Friday's. The current time frame for mission-01 looks to be flown on
March 13th (is now scheduled).
With this campaign, the use of "Unit Squadrons" will be used and as the campaign progresses from mission to mission the squad assignments will also rotate. Fighter, bomber, torpedo planes ... ect.
Well with all that being said ... Here is Mission #01.
