Dambuster of the Year Awards

Post by FuelPump »

Coming up on the end of another year in 617 Squadron, I thought it might be good to recognise various Dambusters for their achievements throughout the year.

Please place your votes for the following categories, the votes will be tallied by me on the 31st of December. If I am too drunk/hungover to tally the votes, somebody else can.

1) Dambuster of the year
2) Best flight lead
3) Best escort lead
4) Best new recruit
5) Best mission organiser
6) Most dedicated bomber
7) Best Friend Of Dambuster

You can vote for any or all categories, you can only vote once, you can change a vote by editing your original vote. You can not vote anonymously.

All votes are from the period 1st Jan 2004 to 31st Dec 2005.

The winner from each category will win the coveted "Busty" award.

EDITED: To add an award

1) Dambuster of the year -- Hiiamben with his Geter Done Attitude. He takes his Job seriousley. I feel Ben was Eager to have this Position.
2) Best flight lead -- Mainforce - Hell Scot can hit the Target goin Backwards. :) Him and Barley8 are great. :)
3) Best escort lead -- Mevan -- Mevan is always their for us, when we are Bombing. S! Mev.
4) Best new recruit -- We only have one New Recruit. ( Trevor6 ) Welcone Trev.

6) Most dedicated bomber -- RedDog - Red will Bomb when Nobody else is on Line. :) He carries the Flag. S! Red.
7) Best Friend Of Dambuster -- Cono. -- If Cono had some real help, I feel he could do a lot of hurt on the Axis Airfields. Plus he will Bomb when needed. S! Cono.


(8.) Best AHC Officer -- :) Kismet - It's nice to have some one Scraping fou you, and our Squads Intrest. He and Bundy would be my Pick after Hiamben, for Dambuster of the Year. Kiz has so maney Ribbons that his Sig sags sometimes. He He -- J/K Kiz. ;) You da Man. With out a doubt Kiz can do it all.

(9) I also think that those that are on most of the time every day, are truly Dedicated to our Squad, and cause. That speaks for most of us. :)

( Thor ) -- Thor struggles, but I can understand every word he says. :) I'm glad I don't have to speak his native Language. :) - Thor is like main4ce, on every day. It's Great to have them in our Squad. Thanks for Recruiting Trevor6 Thor. Its nice to look up and see that Hammer. :)

(11) Escorts -- Well Mevan, Sniper, and Mako, are the best we have, when they are on Line. :)

( 12 ) Best Filmaker. -- FuelPump, is hands down da best in my Book. S! Fuel. I really like ( Love From Above ) :) By the way Fuel, when is da next one. he he -- ( more ) ( more ) ( more ) :) S! Fuel, and Thanks. ( Fantastic )

(13) Honorably Mention - (Codguy) Codguy seens to have learned Quick. As most of you know Cod is in the Military, crewing on a BIG Airplane. He's just a Natural for this Bombinf Stuff. :) S! Codguy.
